Description
Pretty simple to test in any app, see the screenshot.
I've had one of these #if nots in our repo for a long time, but I did a quick sanity test too and verified that the Roku OS can process either if/else path successfully.

Research direction
Reproduce the report in a minimal Roku/BrightScript app containing #if not <CONST> and observe when BS1091 is emitted. Compare both #if branches and verify that valid conditional-compilation syntax no longer produces the diagnostic; the issue does not name a source file or test to run.
