Shibboleth doesn't know anything about InCommon, so there's no difference
to it. InCommon is a way of managing metadata and trust, it doesn't
preclude others.

Shibboleth 1.3 does not support SAML 2. If your new SP is SAML 2 only,
then you cannot connect to it.

Yes, it has roughly similar capabilities in terms of supporting multiple
metadata files.

The old 1.3 documentation in the wiki, I suppose.
