    By RAW, it could be any of those. The reading implies that it should be the action that would have been required to cast the spell on your next turn, normally a Standard Action for a spell, or a free action if you already have Shapechange cast.

    Relevant bits highlighted. No, ability damage doesn't carry over, because you get the new form's physical ability scores. Yes, you retain it when you change back.

    Yes, since the medium size creature is within 1 size category of the lycanthrope at the time the ability activates.

    No, by RAW you can't do that because Dragons don't have the ability to trade features from their first HD for class features like Humanoids do.
    Edit: The posts below indicate this isn't a simple question, but a controversial topic that may deserve its own thread.

    You share the Time Stop, as the feat's name suggests. The spell Time Stop only makes you move very quickly for 1d4+1 rounds. The two still can't target each other with spells or attacks, as per the text of Time Stop.
