[all websites] Declare HTML5 scripts and styles support for better compliance with W3C validator

Description

Hi,

Given almost all WordPress themes are written in HTML5, they should declare HTML5 support for styles and scripts to avoid using type attributes in styles and scripts. Otherwise, W3C validator will throw a warning because of the type element.

This option was introduced in WordPress 5.3. For reference, see:

This looks good to me. Is there anything on wordpress.org not using HTML 5?
Would modern browsers (now that IE11 is dropped) even care?
