Hmm, that must be some package you have installed, by default ( just
inserts a ( at point without wrapping anything.

In emacs -Q M-( does what you want.
M-( runs the command insert-parentheses (found in global-map), which
is an interactive compiled Lisp function in ‘lisp.el’.
It is bound to M-(.
(insert-parentheses &optional ARG)
Enclose following ARG sexps in parentheses.
Leave point after open-paren.
[...]
If region is active, insert enclosing characters at region boundaries.
