Probe Basic - keyboard jogging

i have not looked deeper into this, but on my machines running 2.9, i must toggle the numloack key to turn it off and then back on and once this is done, the number keypad does not jog the machine anymore in the numlocked state and allows number key entry in boxes, this surely should be a high priority to be corrected in lcnc and or settings for use with lcnc in debian 12+  when i forget i am reminded by the machine moving when pressing the number keypad.

qtpyvcp's VCPMainWindow
`keyPressEvent` and `keyReleaseEvent`
this is where its hooking up key presses to axis jogging
github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp/blob/main/src..._window.py#L275-L313

suspect we could add a settings check to bypass these if else statements

oh looks like there is also something in VTKBackPlot / InteractorEventFilter

@dpslwk - Thanks for finding that.

I would love a setting to turn off all keyboard control functions.
