The advice with this list should be: you can ask anything you want but not all of it. Pick a few topics that matter the most to you and not randomly. But definitely ask questions. Especially when you have concerns around the topics that those questions cover. You can also highlight your own skills by asking pointed questions about things that relate to those skills.
Also, maybe ask open questions rather than closed questions. Several questions on the list are very closed questions. Like what "version control system do you use?" They are not going to give you a lot of insight regardless of the answer and the answer is likely to be not very surprising.
That's also a good trick as an interviewer. Ask really broad and open questions and see what comes back. It's not about what you answer but how you answer. If I was interviewing, I'd bounce those questions back. So in case of the version control question, I'd ask some open question about your experience or opinion on that topic.
