ui: dynamic A-F buttons in keypad that only appear in HEX mode

- A-F (hex digits) now render as additional top row in the keypad *only* when CurrentBase() == HEX (i.e., after Tab).
- Used dedicated hexBtn + hexKey style (orange accent) for the A-F row to avoid label conflict with the 'C' clear button.
- Pressed flash works for A-F via existing pressedKey mechanism (set in the HEX entry keyboard handler).
- The numeric 4-row grid remains unchanged in other modes.
- Updated UI_DESIGN.md layout sketch and description to document the dynamic behavior.
- Matches the galculator-inspired 'only when in hex mode' and keeps the keypad clean otherwise.
- Build verified.

 - Pressed state: the key inverts to the bright flashStyle (white fg on 63 bg, bold) for ~140ms on every action. This provides immediate "tactile click" visual feedback (modeled directly on gostations volume/skip/stop flashes).
 - Keys use Height(2) for chunkier, more button-like presence.
 - Spacing ("  " gaps) between keys.
 
 The keys sit directly on the main card background (no faceplate container).

-The BASE action (cycle display format) is available via the `Tab` key (documented in the hint row). There is no on-screen BASE button in the keypad grid. This keeps the button layout regular and avoids awkward single-button rows, while still making the feature easily discoverable via the persistent hint.

 All important actions have direct keys (digits, operators, =/Enter, Backspace, Tab for BASE, c/C, etc.). The on-screen buttons are primarily visual + mouse targets.
