[Feature Request] Wifi Direct NetPlay for Mobile.

First and foremost consider this:

  • Only RetroArch bugs should be filed here. Not core bugs or game bugs
  • This is not a forum or a help section, this is strictly developer oriented

Description

RetroArch has already lan P2P support, so it would be awesome to add the ability to create a WiFi direct session from within RetroArch to use Netplay on mobile devices even without having to be connected to the internet, it would be amazing to play multiplayer games on two or more mobile devices offline via just the wifi direct connection, perfect for travels. I would definitely donate to a bounty for that and I know others will too.

@Cthulhu-throwaway Thoughts? this seems to be much requested for mobile devices at least.
