Nayef Ghattas 1a349fc92b unsafe: document the behavior of Sizeof on an interface
unsafe.Sizeof() can return a different value than
reflect.TypeOf(x).Size() for a variable of an interface static type.
This change points out the difference in behavior, by emphasizing that
unsafe.Sizeof() only returns the size of the interface value itself,
rather than the size of the value stored in the interface.

Fixes #67465.
