Bcd Conversion

/**
 * This class provides methods to convert between BCD (Binary-Coded Decimal) and decimal numbers.
 *
 * BCD is a class of binary encodings of decimal numbers where each decimal digit is represented by a fixed number of binary digits, usually four or eight.
 *
 * For more information, refer to the
 * <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal">Binary-Coded Decimal</a> Wikipedia page.
 *
 * <b>Example usage:</b>
 * <pre>
 * int decimal = BcdConversion.bcdToDecimal(0x1234);
 * System.out.println("BCD 0x1234 to decimal: " + decimal); // Output: 1234
 *
 * int bcd = BcdConversion.decimalToBcd(1234);
 * System.out.println("Decimal 1234 to BCD: " + Integer.toHexString(bcd)); // Output: 0x1234
 * </pre>

     * Converts a BCD (Binary-Coded Decimal) number to a decimal number.
     * <p>Steps:
