When importing to Postgres using OSM2PGSQL, what options must I use in order to preserve the OSM IDs and record types?
Not sure. I'd suggest asking at https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql/discussions where someone like Jochen or Sarah might be able to give you a more definitive answer.

I've imported a full planet .OSM.PBF to Postgres using osm2pgsql (on a cloud computer with lots of RAM). Now I'd like advice on the best parameters to use for the osm2pgsql command (and where Lua should fit in)
If you're setting up something new without any existing instructions, you will want to use the osm2pgsql flex backend as the others will eventually be deprecated. There are a number of examples in the osm2pgsql repo you can use as a starting point. Exactly what you need to do will depend on what you want to do with the data. If all you need is one type of feature like buildings, your code will be much simpler than if you're making a complex basemap.

Is it possible to use C++ libs on Flutter desktop apps?
This is the library here: https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native

Max zoom levels?
Yes, I'm using the Flutter MapBox GL project (that uses the native implementation, which is mostly written in C++). I'm using vector tiles, and it's getting down to 1.35cm/pixel for iOS and .12cm/pixel for Android at my latitude; I believe this is level 22 for iOS and 25.5 for Android.

Interactive maps in C++ applications
Mapbox has a c++ sdk as well as a GL renderer

Maps Offline?
But vector tiles is indeed the way to go, but it's also much more complicated. Everyone that has worked on Maps so far has done it either as a SoC / Outreachy student or on weekends and evenings. Look at https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native if you want to get a feel for the complexity of a client side implementation of rendering vector tiles.
