Some of them (below) I am not sure how to do using libqmi. I would appreciate any help. Need to decided whether we need to add official Gobi drivers and SDK for this purpose.

libqmi has OMA service support since some time ago, but the
corresponding qmicli commands were not added. Mainly, because we
implemented the OMA service support directly in ModemManager:
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/ModemManager/api/latest/gdbus-org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Modem.Oma.html

Regarding the firmware upgrades, I haven't seen anything related in
the OMA service. We've seen "device configuration" requests via OMA,
though, see:
