Comment:

 It looks like this feature has already been addressed in core. The plugins
 list screen now shows a "View details" link for plugins available on
 WordPress.org, which opens the same tabbed info modal that was originally
 requested. Specifically, WP_Plugins_List_Table::single_row() renders this
 link in the plugin meta row (next to "Version | By Author") for any plugin
 with a known slug via the update_plugins transient.

 The link appears in the description area rather than in the action links
 row, and is labeled "View details" instead of "Info," but it serves the
 same purpose.

 I'd suggest closing this as fixed. If there's interest in also adding it
 as an action link alongside Activate/Deactivate/Delete, happy to prepare a
 patch.
