So if I'm to understand the article, this will allow Android device users to find their devices as well as AirTags? It read as if this will be just for Google and Apple branded devices. Would this be for all Android devices, e.g., Samsung? (Forgive me if all these answers seem obvious, I am not very techy.)

It's pretty much identical to the Apple Find My network, which means you get tracking for phones, trackers, and headphones (support has been confirmed by Google, JBL, Beats, and Sony).

Yes, it would work with all android devices. Otherwise, it would be pointless.
