I am not sure whether just
pushing my fixed code to the branch that I submitted an MR for will
automatically update the MR

it will.
in forges like gitlab (or GitHub), MRs (PRs) are just branches with discussion and I "merge" button.

the branch has to be within the same (instance of the) forge, to allow easy integration.
the full MR is the tip of the branch.

How about force pushes after doing rebase -i to squash fixups? I have been told to NEVER do that, but the one time I accidentally did it, it just worked.

Adding fixup commits that are explicitly visible to a MR discussion makes the discussion quite hard, imo.
