To fix these errors, I suggest:

No. These are required for HTML4 and optional for HTML5 (not forbidden,
not an error) so for the time being they will stay.
- remove the 12 lines in skin.css that trigger the warnings (methinks
they are obsolete)
CSS silently ignores unrecognized or new rules and values,
intentionally, by design. These above are recognized by older versions
of the popular web browsers, and are ignored by new versions which use
the standard rules, so your website looks mostly good in both old and
new browsers. If we remove them the older browsers will ignore the
currently standard rules and your website will not look the way you'd
expect. This includes a number of mobile browsers on thousands of device
models which cannot be upgraded but would display the page correctly
with the non-standard vendor extension.
- line 360 in skin.css currently has
max-width: auto;
Thanks, will be fixed for the next PmWiki version (to "none").
I checked a local installation of pmwiki-responsive with the suggested
fixes and they resulted in "vaild" HTML and CSS.
Nothing prevents a custom skin to ship without the older browser
compatibility, but indeed for the PmWiki default skins the community may
decide to go one way or the other. In the past the general feeling was a
pragmatic one: we don't intentionally break browser and device
compatibility, especially in the default skins. If this feeling has
changed, the code can be updated.
