This looks good. I have some comments below.

This change is not needed. Org markup is capitalized in examples to make
it stand out. It's not great because 1) it is ugly 2) users may think
Org syntax is uppercase. But changing that is not the point of this patch.

See above.

You don't need to document ignored arguments.

Same as above.

I suggest to use `org-export-get-next-element', which is not as
low-level as this.

Be careful, (org-element-property :post-blank item) may be nil.
I suggest to use (eq 1 (org-element-property :post-blank item)) instead.

OK, but I think this is a bit convoluted. I wonder if we need
`org-texinfo--combine-items' at all. I.e., `org-texinfo-item' could
decide to prefix current tag with @itemx if 1) the item is empty 2) the
list has a non-nil :compact attribute 3) there's another item following
it. IOW, we do not need to rely on an :itemx property.
WDYT?
