I think that this change was intentional.  To get back to the old
version, you would need an init file, I believe.  I attach one which
should do what you want, except maybe for the top file.

you can use it with

texi2any --html --init file_names_simple.pm toto.texi

(As a side note, my guess would be that you do not have nodes in your
texinfo file, otherwise you would have seen the "new behaviour" earlier).

For that, you can set
  -c INLINE_CONTENTS=0

If you want more generally the texi2html style, you can use
 -c TEXI2HTML
