[metrics-team] Python coding style - wiki links

[iwakeh]

here is the documentation page link I referred to in the earlier posting:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/MetricsTeam/Documentation

and the python-guide-to-be-created page:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/MetricsTeam/MetricsPythonStyleGuide 

which is currently a placeholder for future reference.
