If you are seeing this warning, you should update the $(TargetFrameworkVersion) of your projects to be v8.0 or above.

If you are not targeting the Google Play store and wish to hide these warnings, you can make use of the /warnasmessage:XA0114 command line switch. Alternatively, add

<PropertyGroup>
    <MSBuildWarningsAsMessages>XA0114</MSBuildWarningsAsMessages>
</PropertyGroup>

to your .csproj file.
