Is there any explanation in the new books about what is the mechanics to be used for the new Team Control Fouls?

Yes, You give one hand fist to indicate foul; preliminary signal to indicate nature of foul (example block); point to the opposite end of the floor; indicate spot for the designated spot throw-in. I got the information from Referee Magazine August edition. It is worth the subscription.
I have the same magazine issue. I was wondering if the rulebook had specific information or not. It is one thing to have it in Referee Magazine. It is another thing to have it in the rulebook. Referee Magazine is a media outlet reporting the information, the rulebook is something everyone is going to see and reference.

In Quaker business meetings, there is a thing called "seasoning". A minute of action, or a nomination for a position is proposed, and then set aside for "seasoning". This means that everyone goes home and prays about it, thinks about it, maybe gossips about it. At the next business meeting (normally a month later), the minute or nomination is approved or not. I read Referee Magazine that way. When I get done with an article, I think, "Hm, that was interesting. I'll see how many corrections they have to print next month regarding this article."

Okay, that's an exaggeration, but they do print a surprising amount of stuff that has to be changed. I too, would like to know what the rule book itself says about the mechanics for the TC.
