Then, brackets being included is expected behaviour. Org cannot really
know whether you want to copy link as actual link or as Org markup.
If your link also contains escaped symbols, copying becomes even more
tricky: [[https:test.asd/\]\]s]] (original link: <https:test.asd/]]s>)
I am not sure what would be the best interface in your situation other
than creating a dedicated function to copy the link address.
