Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: exception-tables.rst: Fix the wrong steps referenced

When it was in text format, it correctly hardcoded steps 8a to 8c.
However, after it was converted to RST, the sequence numbers were
auto-generated during rendering and became incorrect after some
steps were inserted.

Change it to refer to steps a to c in a relative way.
