Re:
Yup if its got the cable stop, needs to be used.....or we shall send the toys round ......haha
Good pads and the correct setting up and they work well tbh, v brakes can be better but everytime you looked at the poor redundant hanger youd feel bad.
Honest
But it's your bike so do what's right for you

Re:
Do whatever you want, it's your bike and so you should build it how you want it.
Personally I'd go with v brakes, they look better, generally work better and would have been an upgrade back in the day.
Don't worry about the frame cable stop. Leave it as a reminder of how things used to be before progress, or even lip it off (I've done that a few times but would probably leave it these days).

Re:
What's the plans for the rest of the bike?
If you're going to keep it fairly original or period correct then fit cantilever brakes.
If not, then fit V-brakes.
Don't forget you'll need canti or v-brake levers too, depending on which you fit.
