gh-116563: Update tutorial error example (#116569)
There now may be multiple carets pointing at a token

possible causes.

bpo-32822: Add finally with return/break/continue to the tutorial (#25600)

There are more modified links than in the bug report because I searched some other ones which can get the same improvement.

Doc: errors tutorial improvements (GH-16269)
Improvements:

- Improvements in how try clause works section
  This suggestion is because the execution continues after *except*, not after *try* but before *except*. I guess this form more clear.

- Surrounding some keywords with \*...\*
  For uniformity the highlighted terms  

- Adjust the number of chars per line to 80
