Why is it that you want to see that?  Just wondering.

FWIW, if you use library `info+.el' then, by default,
you see what you describe in the mode-line of the
Info window.  And each part of those breadcrumbs is
clickable there, just as it is in the header-line.

This is controlled by minor mode
`Info-breadcrumbs-in-mode-line-mode'.  You can toggle
the mode on/off anytime, including using menu-bar
menu Info > Toggle > Breadcrumbs In Mode Line.
When turned off, you see the usual mode-line.

You can also toggle whether the breadcrumbs are shown
in the Info header-line.  That's on menu Info > Toggle
> Breadcrumbs In Node Header.  When turned off, you
see instead two links in the header, for (1) the Info
file (manual) and (2) the current node in the manual.
