 In [changeset:"47086" 47086]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="47086"
 Mail: Remove angle brackets from password reset URL in emails sent by
 `retrieve_password()` and `wp_new_user_notification()`.

 The brackets were originally added in [16285] per W3C recommendation in
 https://www.w3.org/Addressing/URL/5.1_Wrappers.html to avoid wrapping the
 URL across multiple lines in plain text in older email clients.

 This doesn't seem like a common issue in modern email clients, and the
 current implementation causes more issues than it solves. Since the URL is
 on a line by itself, it should not require any delimiters.

 The URL in recovery mode email introduced in [44973] doesn't have angle
 brackets, so it's time to retire them in password reset email too if
 they're not used consistently.
