Is there a chess library in Python (or any other programming language but Python preferred) that will allow me to identify the opening of a game by passing the PGN of the game as input?
Not a library, but at least a collection of openings in a machine readable format. Also a script to manipulate it in the bin/ folder. https://github.com/lichess-org/chess-openings

Are there any world champions with no openings or variations named after them?
In the list of openings used by Lichess, there are no variations named after Anand or Magnus. Also none named after the FIDE world champions Khalifman, Kasimdzhanov, and Topalov.

If I were going to make a collection of all chess openings at their most basic move sequence, how many would there be?
I would suggest using the TSV files instead. https://github.com/niklasf/eco
