[Description of the bug]
Please, due to core_info_current_supports_netplay function, core mame2003_plus and fbalpha2012 lost network game support, so we can no longer play network hack roms like street fighter 2 mix and Street Fighter Alpha 3 mix.

Research direction
Start at core_info_current_supports_netplay and trace how the serialization-quirk check rejects mame2003_plus and fbalpha2012. Reproduce the failure with the named cores and network hack ROMs on Linux or Windows; done means both cores can enter network play without the unsupported message.
