Time entries in TimePad: Ability to edit start or stop times by typing in the number directly (versus using the standalone clock inputs)

When a user is manually editing a time entry, oftentimes it's much easier in for a busy, keyboard-preferred user to input time entries by typing them into an inbox.
Today, users have to click a few times and navigate a dedicated Hour - Minute - AM/PM controller via mouse. This can oftentimes feel slow for a user.

TimePad's Manual Time Entry Tool is smarter and faster thanks to a mid-December 2023 release 🧠💨.
Inbox users can set their total time worked on a thread through a simple editor without setting a start and stop time range. To use, tab or click on the input at the top-left of TimePad, type the estimated time worked, and hit enter - TimePad will handle the rest.
- Round up in 15-minute blocks: Tap the Up Arrow key to round time to the nearest fifteen-minute increment and Down Arrow to round down by fifteen minutes. We know that many techs budget their time in quarter-hour blocks; TimePad better supports this shorthand.
- Edit in minutes, not in seconds: When you type "115", Timepad recognizes that it should mean 1 hour and 15 minutes, not seconds.

The old way of adding manual time entries was fine

It was just better before, new way is functionally very clumsy, it can be a huge pain to adjust the start time earlier if we forget to start the timer at the beginning of the work on a ticket. Everything jumps around and tries to mess with the date since there is a calendar picker but no clock picker. Doing manual time entry now is a downgrade from the old system IMO

TimePad inconsistent and buggy with manual entries

When I'm trying to enter in time using timepad it's like the buggiest thing to get it to take the time I enter in. I should be able to click into the start time, type 1115 and have the system auto update that to 11:15am. This does happen sometimes but it's really hit or miss if it will do that or just remove my entry completely and default back to whatever the timer start time was. Make this more consistent so it takes whatever is entered in and does something with it.
