There are two issues with that message, first, we should not refer to
TeX mode, this is a Texinfo language issue, not tied to a specific
output.  Second, I would prefer if we did say that braces are required,
but not how they should be used, if, for example, the user actually
wanted to have a command with something in the argument, ie @code{aa}
instead of @code{}.
