Subject: [PATCH] feat: support pasting numbers into the calculator stack
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add clipboard paste handling for the hidden input and the paste button so pasted text is parsed as a numeric value before being pushed. Also add the eˣ function key in the sample calculator and keep the hidden input selected on focus for Ctrl+V support.
