Don't make ElDoc doc buffer visible in buffer list by default

Fixes: bug#44334
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eldoc.el (eldoc-doc-buffer): No longer take
INTERACTIVE arg.  Show buffer if invisible.
(eldoc--format-doc-buffer): Don't change buffer visibility.
(eldoc-display-in-buffer): Show buffer if invisible if by calling
eldoc-doc-buffer.
