I wonder if we ever call this function with more than one argument. If 
not, the code and the doc call for simplification. We can avoid 
advertising this possibility, at least.

I think this needlessly prioritizes the implementation over the 
intention. And the latter is to display whatever the documentation 
function returns (if non-nil). Saving to eldoc-last-message is 
secondary, and can be mentioned later.

This is probably non-essential, and we can avoid mentioning it.
