I wonder if there will be one or more Lycanthrope archetypes in this book, like BotD's undead archetypes?

Go look them up on the Pathfinder wiki.
You find them for me in a Pathfinder Second Edition book and then we'll talk. Lots of things from 1e were left behind, usually with good reason.
Have you read the Bestiary? It's considered one of the essential books that most people own, and if you look on Archives of Nethys (which you have access to right now) you'll find that Drow are also in the Abomination Vaults Adventure Path.

Got it pulled up in a tab in front of me. The word "black" is pulling up 0 hits, because it doesn't describe their skintone anywhere... but all the art has them in shades of grey, lilac, and blue.

So again - got a 2e source for them being black-skinned?

Sorry, misunderstood that that specific description was the important part (late at night, so I guess I failed my Reading Comprehension check.)

Unrelated to that, here's a controversial take:

You CAN pretty much make a Drow in Pathfinder 2e.
First, start with an Elf with the Tiefling heritage (or Cavern Elf).
With the Otherworldly Magic and Otherworldy Acumen feats, you gain access to Dancing Lights and Darkness. I can't figure out how to get access to Faerie Fire without using class or archetype feats at the moment. Fey Influence will grant access to Spider Sting, but I would probably just take Alchemical Crafting to craft poisons. There's also the Drow Shootist Archetype.

Okay, I'll cave. You don't have an option that gives you the Drow trait (but that's going to be non-existant in the Remaster anyway, right?), and I can't figure out Faerie Fire, but I'm pretty damn close. You want Charisma? Take it as your third Ancestry Boost - you're probably spending your other points on it as well, right? Use some tiefling feats for being intimidating and persuading. If you really have to have Faerie Fire, take an archetype or class that will grant it to you.

Ancestry options for playing giants, ogres, and/or trolls, as well as bugbears.
Some kind of Shaman class - Cleric, Druid, Oracle and Witch don't really fit what I'd like (maybe a Charisma-based spontaneous Primal caster?). Also some kind of spontaneous gish, more similar to a Magus than to a Summoner.
A class similar to Bard, but with no spellcasting. Also a Scholar, something like an Investigator but with flavor more like a non-magical Wizard. (Basically some things that resemble the classes from Adventures in Middle-Earth).
