Paul added "@documentencoding utf-8" to sources of all the Info
manuals; the rest was done by makeinfo when it produced the Info
files.

Not by a similar approach, but we could indeed restore old behavior by
customizing makeinfo (the details are in the Texinfo manual, and were
quoted here by the OP).  But we need to agree to that first, and I
very much doubt that such an agreement will be reached, given the GNU
Coding Standards and the general mindset.
