True, your iCloud storage isn't affected by iCloud Music Library.
No, Apple doesn't remember which songs you have made available for offline use.
I created a few smart playlists in iTunes and some of them are intended for offline use only. Should I for whatever reason have to reinstall my iPhone from scratch, all songs will be available on my phone once I sign in on iCloud Music Library. After that, I only have to make those playlists available for offline use again and I'm good to go. I don't save any individual songs for offline use anyway. All songs I like to be offline belong in one of those smart playlists.
I do that exact thing with playlists. It's the same with getting music onto the watch. You make a playlist.
