Problems installing Mac os Monteray
Take out the AMDRyzenCPUPowerManagement.kext. Add AirportItlwm.kext (if you have Intel Wifi) and IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext. Also, make SURE you grab the correct AirportItlwm kext for your operating system (Big sur, Monterey, etc.). I'm assuming your UTBMap kext is the USB map. You might want to rename that and see if that helps as well (to USBMap or USBPorts).

Bluetooth issue with Monterey
I digged into discussions about Monterey's bluetooth support problems, which said that Apple downgraded BT support to 5.0, while some of Intel's BT adapters support only BT 5.2. But one commit of IntelBluetoothFirmware said that it added support for those cards. I switched to Windows and found the VID/PID of the bluetooth device is precisely 8087/0026, which is in the support list.

As for not detecting the charger, your battery status probably isn't working properly. Have you tried ECEnabler?

Using Grub to Triple Boot on Legacy BIOS System
Sounds like your battery stopped working properly under macOS. Maybe you could try ECEnabler? If that doesn't work, Dortania's OpenCore Post-Install guide has a section on fixing battery read-outs on laptops. (Why trackpad detection and battery status are so intertwined, I do not know.)
