Some devices need to issue a pre-initialization command sequence via
i2c in order to "enable" the communication with some adapter components.

This happens for instance in the vp7049 USB DVB-T stick on which the
frontend cannot be detected without first sending a certain sequence of
commands via i2c.

I looked patch 3 and it is not I2C communication but direct M9206 memory access you did. I could guess it is GPIO sequence to reset & power demod and tuner. Due to that, correct place for this kind of initialization is inside demod and tuner attach.

With a USB power meter, some trial & error testing, and maybe fw disasm you could even detect those GPIOS :)

If this approach is OK I can send a similar patch for dvb-usb-v2.

There is already such callbacks - but no callback between I2C init and FE attach. There is read_config() which is called first, good place to make probing device and detect hw config. Another new callback is .init() which is called after demod and tuner attach. Stuff like USB interface config should remain here. On USB power management case reset_resume() that function is called too in order re-configure reseted USB IF.

I don't see need yet another new callback.

Are all the dvb-usb drivers going to be ported to dvb-usb-v2 eventually?

There is still quite many drivers to convert, so maybe it is not happen anytime soon or even later. Feel free to convert that driver. For bonus you will get for example power-management support for free.
