That wouldn't resolve the problem. My news reader auto-detects a
link here too, and includes both the period and the parenthese in
the link, and so I get a "Not found" from
<https://tug.org/texlive/doc.html.)>

Imho you have only two choices here: 

* leave it as it is. That would be fine with me. Wrong link guessing
is quite common and if it doesn't work I remove the dot or
parenthese or whatever and try again.

* Make the link explicit by using as David suggested always <...>.
