Summary: KCalc doesn't switch values when changing numeric
systems

SUMMARY
KCalc doesn't switch between
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go into numeric system mode.
2. Enter a number in Decimal mode.
3. Hit Enter (this didn't used to be required)
3. Switch to Hex mode.
OBSERVED RESULT
Upon hitting enter the equivalent notation for the entered value appears in
Hex, Dec, Oct and Binary.
However when switching to any of those notations, the value in the
readout/enter area remains Decimal.
This occurs also when switching from any mode to any other.
EXPECTED RESULT
The numeric system values used to be automatically updated in the numeric
system representations as it was typed.
More importantly, in prior versions, kcalc would switch the value in the
calculation area to the selected notation.
This is important to users if they want to add 145 decimal to 0xFE hex.
There is also not an easy way to copy a numeric system value. EG I entered FA
into Hex, it shows 250 in Decimal, but I can't copy it or otherwise use that
value.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 6.9.12-3-MANJARO
KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
6.0.5
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In the attached screenshot. I started in hex and entered FA. Then I switched to
decimal and attempted to add 120 to FA, however the calculation fails because
FA was not converted to Decimal when switching.
