Description

### Problem description

Choosing selection mode and making an operation resets the selection mode to "No selection filters".Now, you can choose faces in edge mode or you can choose edges in face mode after one operation.This is not correct behaviour

### Workbench affected?

Core (App, Gui,...)

### Steps to reproduce

1.Switch to part wb
2.Create a cube
3.Change selection mode to edge
4.Select edge
5.Make fillet
now you should be able select only edges but you will see you can select faces and vertices too

1.Create a pad in part design
2.Change selection mode to face
3.Choose a face and pad again
4.Now you can select edges also

### Expected behavior

When you choose a filter You shouldn't be able to choose other options. For example, in edge selection mode you should always choose edges until changing the mode

### Actual behavior

After one time operation selection mode doesn't work
