No different from last year. Continuous motion only applies when the defense commits a foul. So if A2 commits a foul
before A1 releases the ball, we have an immediate dead ball. And the ball is awarded to B OOB.
The only difference from last year is, of course, that if B is in the bonus, they will not shoot FTs this year.

2) A1 drives to the basket, and after releasing the ball on a shot, contacts B1. PC, right? Ball is dead, B gets ball oob?

No different from last year. (Sensing a theme here?

) Since the ball is in the air, we count it if it goes. If it doesn't go in, then the ball is awarded to B OOB or (since there's no team control) B2 shoots FTs if B is in the bonus.

4) So PC and TC are different if the foul happens after the release? PC kills the ball, TC doesn't. Correct?

Not exactly. The better way to think about it is that there is no TC foul after the release. Why? Because there is no team control after the release.

Continuous motion does not apply to
any foul that is committed by a member of the offensive team. Continuous motion only applies when a defender commits a foul.
