I'm glad to see that you're interested in this. The
internationalisation for output when not processing with TeX is done
with gettext. Translation files for this would have to be done through
the Translation Project
(https://translationproject.org/domain/texinfo_document.html,
https://translationproject.org/team/fi.html). There has been some
Finnish translation of messages from texi2any (in the "texinfo"
domain), but these are separate.

I will reply privately about including your file as part of the
Texinfo distribution.
