That is the plan, yes.

The latter.

None of the suites available on it (unstable/experimental) recieve
security updates.
The packages on it are ones produced at the same time as the other
packages. So when testing gets added and there is a testing security
update (almost never happens), the security update will also
automatically build -dbgsym packages as long as the relevant debhelper
version is installed. Once stretch is released as stable, the same
applies. jessie/wheezy/etc will of course not get -dbgsym packages.
