What would happen when Veracrypto shuts down?
As others have mentioned the software you have would still function, allowing you to move it to another encrypted tool if you wished. As of right now I know of at least one open source project that can encrypt/decrypt Veracrypt volumes or disks...Zulucrypt by Francis Banyikwa. It can be found at: https://mhogomchungu.github.io/zuluCrypt/

What is the best way to encrypt a file using a standard way before I send it to someone over the internet such that they can decrypt it?
zuluCrypt, considered very solid and is one of the default software of Whonix and kicksecure.

Why is cryptsetup luksFormat so much faster than setup using VeraCrypt?
I think I got the impression that it's reliant on this single person mainly from this page: https://mhogomchungu.github.io/zuluCrypt/ but it's also confirmed by the github insights https://github.com/mhogomchungu/zuluCrypt/graphs/contributors

Is there a Plasma Vault setup that works for large directories (~100GB)?
Try out SiriKali. It doesn't care where you host your encrypted and you can unlock your encrypted folder without first "importing it" but for convenience, you can add it to a favorite's list. I would recomment gocryptfs over encfs.
