Agniva De Sarker ed3ae9a340 cmd/doc: properly display interface methods
Previously, we used to call doc.ToText to print each comment
in a comment group attached to an interface method. This broke any
preformatted code block attached to the comment, and displayed everything
aligned to a single column. Additionally, the name of the interface
also wasn't displayed which didn't show which interface
the method belonged to.

To fix this, we print the entire interface node using format.Node
which takes care of displaying the comments correctly, and we also
filter out the methods that don't match, so that the method can be
displayed as belonging to an interface.

As an example, previously it would show:

// Comment before exported method.
//
// // Code block showing how to use ExportedMethod
// func DoSomething() error {
// ExportedMethod()
// return nil
// }
func ExportedMethod()  // Comment on line with exported method.

Now, it shows:

type ExportedInterface interface {
	// Comment before exported method.
	//
	//	// Code block showing how to use ExportedMethod
	//	func DoSomething() error {
	//		ExportedMethod()
	//		return nil
	//	}
	ExportedMethod() // Comment on line with exported method.

}

Fixes #43188
