Coordinate Conversion component setting currentLocation doesn't work properly

Hi, after migrating to the new `@arcgis/map-components`, I noticed an issue with the **Coordinates Conversion** component.

We use this component to select a point on the map. If a point was initially selected, it should be restored after the map is initialized.

After the migration, the initially set `currentLocation` is displayed incorrectly. Instead of showing a proper DMS value, it is rendered as:

`77.037° 38.907' ", ° ' "`

This suggests that the degrees/minutes/seconds values are not being correctly parsed or formatted during initialization.

<arcgis-scene basemap="topo-vector" center="-118.836, 36.487" zoom="10" ground="world-elevation" camera-tilt="10"> <arcgis-zoom slot="top-right"></arcgis-zoom> <arcgis-coordinate-conversion slot="bottom-left" mode="capture" hide-settings-button multiple-conversions-disabled></arcgis-coordinate-conversion> </arcgis-scene> <script type="module"> const coordinateConversion = document.querySelector("arcgis-coordinate-conversion"); await coordinateConversion.componentOnReady(); const toRemove = coordinateConversion.formats.filter(format => format.name !== 'dms'); coordinateConversion.formats.removeMany(toRemove); coordinateConversion.currentLocation = { x: 77.0369, y: 38.9072, spatialReference: { wkid: 4326 }}; </script>

Hi @SvitlanaBilan, thanks for posting here. I'm seeing some issues as well, we'll investigate and update this thread as appropriate.

Hi @SvitlanaBilan, good news! We found the cause of the issue, and this will be resolved at the next release (expected in late February or early March).
