rustdoc: simplify `clean` by removing `FnRetTy`

The default fn ret ty is always unit. Just use that.

Looking back at the time when `FnRetTy` (then called `FunctionRetTy`) was first added to rustdoc, it seems to originally be there because `-> !` was a special form: the never type didn't exist back then.

`DefaultReturn` was later added to rustdoc to mirror a change in HIR, which added a variant for DefaultReturn because it makes `Span` management easier. This isn't needed in rustdoc, since it doesn't carry spans.
