rendercomment: safer auto-linkification of URLs

Fixes a few edge cases:

- URLs within code blocks used to get redundant <> added, breaking bash
  code snippets like `curl https://...` into `curl <https://...>`.

- Links written with markdown's <https://...> syntax also used to get an
  extra pair of brackets.
