annotate_ifdef_directives: remove some cases of double negation

This change should reduce the number of cases where we say
"/* !(!defined(foo)) */" .

This only does cases where we can use a regex to make sure that the
simplification is guaranteed to be correct.  Full boolean
simplification would require this script to parse C, and nobody
wants that.
