The update package files have the code to do database updates in them, that is why it's best to use the update package when updating. As far as I know, if install via package manager, everything should get done, no need to manually run the file.

upgrade.php will be necessary when ElkArte will have to move from 1.0 to 1.1 and so on.
Yes, you could use it to update even between micro releases as well (you have to move all the upgrade*.* files to the root and run upgrade.php).
