1, you dont need to change it role=presentation class=d-none should be more than enough to satisfy the checker and the skipto plugin
2. shouldnt all forms have an accessible name anyway?

we can easily give all forms an accessible name by utilising the table_caption string eg
<form aria-label="<?php echo Text::_('COM_ACTIONLOGS_TABLE_CAPTION'); ?>"

which gives a nicer skipto menu as well
