I think you've managed to restore a functioning warm standby that found
some WAL to process and proceeded to do so.

If you want to bring the server backup in non-standby mode you will need to
remove the stuff that is making it be a standby. I don't know that stuff
off the top of my head and it also has recently changed. The v13
documentation will be more useful than I for those specifics.

I don't know what the warnings are - they read like something that should
crash the server...
