So we'll stick with the longer form

While this sounds like a win, I still like the idea of renaming the
troublesome info node, as there is a lot of advice out there to use the
old forms for 'info' and it's probably better to support that advice, at
least for a while, than to make it immediately stop working.
I noticed other problems that are at least somewhat related to the
recent coreutils multi-binary executable changes, and fixed some of
these problems with the attached patches. (I ran out of energy before
fixing the rest. :-) Patch 2 renames the troublesome node.
Come to think of it, how about removing the 'coreutils' command
entirely? Why should users invoke 'coreutils' directly? We could move
it to libexec and remove it from the documentation.
