This PR refactors the implementation for handling kinetic energy unit changes. While initially intended to address broken functionality introduced in #780, the scope has evolved to implement a more intuitive approach for unit handling that no longer depends on the previous logic.
Previously, changing units would update both the UI display and backend values to represent the same physical quantity (e.g., 5 MeV changed to GeV would result in 0.005 on both the UI and backend). This behavior has now been redesigned to better align with user expectations. With this update, the backend value (in MeV) is updated to reflect the new unit, while the UI number remains constant (e.g., 5 MeV → 5 GeV).
