Boost Python Tutorial contains broken link to Python Tutorial #412

The Boost Python Tutorial references a Python Tutorial in the Creating Packages section. The link to said Python Tutorial http://www.python.org/doc/current/tut/node8.html shows a 404 File Not Found page.

I don't know to which content in the Python Tutorial the Creating Packages section in the Boost Python Tutoral was referring to, but found a Python Tutorial on Packaging Python Projects under this url https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/packaging-projects/#

While browsing through the Python documentation I also came across this url https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html#packages providing The Python Tutorial with a 6.4 section titled Packages. Possibly a more suited replacement url.

Furthermore the Boost Python Tutorial references the Python/C API in the Embedding section. Yet the link http://www.python.org/doc/current/api/api.html to the Python/C API also shows a 404 File Not Found page.

The following url may be a suitable replacement: https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/index.html
