Research direction
Reproduce the issue in VSCodeVim 1.27.2 with the reported #if, #else, and #endif line, using % to move between matches. Start by locating the TypeScript implementation of % matching and compare its handling of braces and brackets with preprocessor directives. Done means % finds the next directive and moves to its matching directive in the reported environment.
