docs: Change tab character representation in docs (#40667)

The suggested `→` appears tiny, and almost looks like just a dot on my
monitor, and I got quite confused for a while thinking the
`whitespace_map.tab` setting wasn't working properly.

I think it would be really helpful if `⟶` was suggested instead since
that displays properly.

I am using `Fira Code` as my font on windows, however when I remove that
config to get the default font, it also still appears the same size. So
I don't believe this is just a font issue on my machine.
Thought I am using Windows, so I would be willing to believe this a
render issue specific to windows
