Describe the bug

When hovering over functions, params, etc. annotated with multiline block comments, the tabs inserted by gofmt are incorrectly displayed as part of the comment. If the initial space after '/*' is removed, the tabs seem to be ignored correctly, but then the first line of the comment has a different font and color than the rest of the comment in the hover documentation.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a function or variable within an indented block of code.
2. Add a block comment containing at least 2 non-empty lines.
3. Hover over variable/function name in vs-code.
