                        Pasting claims "Invalid input" when using common or semi-common alias signs for multiplying and dividing
Describe the bug
Several signs, including very common ones like : and x, are not accepted when being pasted into Calculator, which claims "Invalid input" every time. Additionally, •, ÷, and × results in "Invalid input" too, somewhat ironic considering the latter two are used for the buttons within the app.
Steps To Reproduce
- Open up Windows Calculator (Close and re-open it if needed), so that the log is empty. Switch between the Standard and Scientific modes between each of the below steps to empty the input box properly.
 - Paste 
80:40into Calculator and see that the input box shows "Invalid Data". - Paste 
80•40into Calculator and see that the input box shows "Invalid Data". - Paste 
80÷40into Calculator and see that the input box shows "Invalid Data". - Paste 
80x40into Calculator and see that the input box shows "Invalid Data". - Paste 
80×40into Calculator and see that the input box shows "Invalid Data". 
Expected behavior All such aliases, and plausibly additional ones too, are accepted when pasting into Calculator.
Screenshots I don't think still-images would help showcase this, unfortunately.

Additional context
I narrowed the "Invalid data" problem to static const wstring c_validBasicCharacterSet = L"0123456789+-.e"; in https://github.com/microsoft/calculator/blob/main/src/CalcViewModel/Common/CopyPasteManager.cpp , and am presuming that it'd be easy to change the values to L"0123456789+-.e:÷•x×"
Creating and binding additional aliases proved difficult despite me trying my hardest to search through the source code. Closest guess I could come up with, was to change a section of https://github.com/microsoft/calculator/blob/main/src/Calculator/Views/GraphingCalculator/GraphingNumPad.xaml.cs from:
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Divide, Tuple.Create("/", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Multiply, Tuple.Create("*", 1, 0) },
To:
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Divide, Tuple.Create("/", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Divide, Tuple.Create(":", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Divide, Tuple.Create("÷", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Multiply, Tuple.Create("*", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Multiply, Tuple.Create("•", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Multiply, Tuple.Create("x", 1, 0) },
            { NumbersAndOperatorsEnum.Multiply, Tuple.Create("×", 1, 0) },
Requested Assignment If possible, I would like to fix this.
