Thank you for making this change. With it, I see that the Info
documentation was installed.

When you write that "package-vc uses ELPA package specifications, which
you can also pass to `package-vc-install'", does that disagree with the
documentation of `package-vc-selected-packages', which states that for
its arguments "all other keys are ignored"?

Are the keys used by the ELPA package specification documented in the
manual? If not, I would like to list the keys accepted at the end of the
Package VC manual page, take from here:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/elpa.git/tree/README

I will write a patch for this, unless there is a reason to not do so.
What do you think?
