Add a link to the `match` statement from its section in the tutorial.
This should be backported to 3.10.

The "Color" example in the pattern-matching section of the "control flow" documentation is not immediately runnable, leading to confusion.

@vsajip Sorry for the trouble—made a [fairly significant] git error in the previous PR.
Have edited the patch as you had said in #28959.

Broadened scope of the document to explicitly discuss and differentiate between ``__main__.py`` in packages versus the ``__name__ == '__main__'`` expression (and the idioms that surround it), as well as ``import __main__``.

This documents in the tutorial docs the behavior of a finally clause in
case it should re-raise an exception but contains a
return/break/continue statement.
Links for 'raise Exception from x' target to 'The raise statement' (7.8) section instead of 'The import statement' (7.11) section.
There are more modified links than in the bug report because I searched some other ones which can get the same improvement.
In the [official tutorial on virtual environment](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html#creating-virtual-environments)
> This will create the tutorial-env directory if it doesn’t exist, and also create directories inside it containing a copy of the Python interpreter, **the standard library**, and various supporting files.
According to the actual behavior of `venv` and [PEP 405](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0405/#id15)'s description about virtual environment, no standard library file is included in the virtual environment's directory.

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
* Update errors.rst
Clarify exception chaining behaviour and give a reference to the library documentation.
* Update errors.rst
Wording
* Update errors.rst
Spelling
* Update errors.rst
Remove mentioning of special attributes as folks think it's too much for beginners.
This commit reverts commit ac0333e1e1 as the original links are working again and they provide extended features such as comments and alternative versions.
Sphinx 3 requires to refer to terms with the exact case.
For example, fix the Sphinx 3 warning:
Doc/library/pkgutil.rst:71: WARNING: term Loader not found in case
sensitive match.made a reference to loader instead.
* Use a more universal explanation of string interpolation rather than specifically referencing sprintf(), which depends on the reader having a C background.
