fix(tvix/builtin-macros): parse multi-line docstrings correctly r/5468

Having a multi-line docstring yields multiple doc-attributes in order,
however we were previously discarding all but the first one.

This reduces them into a single string instead, which can then be
displayed as multi-line documentation.
