That patch cannot be accepted into Wine for the reasons Zebediah told you:
https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2018-March/124754.html

Patches must be submitted through wine-devel; pull requests on GitHub are
ignored. Furthermore, a patch that qualifies you for GSoC has to be your
own work (submitting a patch on behalf of someone else does not count,
especially if you do not give credit to the original author).

We'd like a new calculator app written from scratch. As far as I know, the
proposal format is up to you.
