Emacs always shows the file name. Since texinfo doesn't produce Info
files with cross-references where the file name between parentheses
refers to the current manual, so cross-references displayed by Emacs
always refer to another Info file, and the file name between parentheses
is always visible.

Like this?

appearing in a separate box (tool tip) or in the echo area will show

I don't know what was the intended way to turn off fontification in Info
after removing the variable `Info-fontify' (this is not explained
anywhere in the documentation). But deleting `turn-on-font-lock'
from `Info-mode-hook' before calling `Info-mode' should do this.
Or invoking `M-x font-lock-mode' once will do the same.
