5. Why do we see two components for table? what is the difference between them?
The <ace-table-grid> components is used to display the records of a specific object based on defined criteria known as filters. Whereas, the <ace-records-table-view> is used to display the records from a pre-defined view which is already configured using the view configurator.

6. For "column-meta" input attribute in the Table-grid component, are all field types documented anywhere? Where can one find the reference to these? For example, for the Text field, the type is STRING. What is the value for Lookup, Picklist, and so on?
The following list shows all the field types:
