Update func comments in chainable_api and FirstOr_ (#5935)

Add comments to functions in chainable_api. Depending on the method,
these comments add some additional context or details that are relevant
when reading the function, link to the actual docs at gorm.io/docs, or
provide examples of use. These comments should make GORM much more
pleasant to use with an IDE that provides hoverable comments, and are
minimal examples.

Also add in-code documentation to FirstOrInit and FirstOrCreate.

Almost all examples are directly pulled from the docs, with short
comments explaining the code. Most examples omit the `db.Model(&User{})`
for brevity, and would not actually work.
