So it's unclear to me in the weapon master handbook, all the feats listed, are they allowed but only with melee weapons or are most of them not allowed and the last is with a melee weapon? And if it's the first, how does that work with overwatch style saying it requires you to ready a ranged attack?

If all those feats were allowed with melee weapons, it would say 'function' (plural) instead of 'functions' (singular), and the last feat would be included with the others in correct alphabetical order.
That makes more sense since Overwatch Style working with melee weapons doesn't make any sense at all.
Ascetic Style being banned does make me sad though, since it was my new favorite style feat and I had ideas for a very fun shuriken thrower that used it.

The text should read, "All feats in the book are legal for play with the following exceptions: Ascetic Form, Ascetic Strike, Ascetic Style, Burrowing Shot, Dwarven Fury, Dwarven Seething, Orc Fury, Orc Rampage, Orc Snarl, Overwatch Style, Overwatch Tactician, Overwatch Vortex, and Smash from the Air. Elven Battle Focus only functions for melee weapons."

The entry for Ultimate Magic is missing a sentence similar to this one out of Ultimate Combat.
All material from this book is legal for play except as noted below. Some rules elements are legal but function differently in Pathfinder Society Organized Play, as described.
Except for the "Familiar" and "Spells" sub entries, the Ultimate Magic entry is currently written as a list of what is not authorized without actually authorizing the rest.
For example the Archype sub entry states
Archetypes: broodmaster summoner, clone master alchemist, gravewalker witch, pack lord druid, master summoner, reincarnated druid, sanguine wildblooded, synthesist summoner, undead lord cleric, vivisectionist alchemist archetypes are not legal for play.
This implies that the other Archtypes are legal but nothing ever states they are.
The same can be said of the Magus class.
A line similar to the one quoted from The Ultimate Combat entry would fix this problem.

Pathfinder Unchained "Classes: all classes on pages 8–39 are legal for play; Skill Unlocks: the skill unlocks and Signature Skill feat are only available through the rogue’s edge class ability."
Rogue's Edge doesn't grant the Signature Skill feat.
Do you mean...
• Unchained Rogues only can use skill unlocks and Signature Skill isn't really available?
• Unchained Rogues only can use skill unlocks and have access to Signature Skill as a normally gained feat?
• Unchained Rogues and anyone with the Signature Skill feat have access to skill unlocks?

2nd one, I think (there was some discussion here)

The Petromin familiar is both legal and illegal for use...
*snip*
Misc.: the patron familiars on page 17; the animal familiars on pages 24–27 and inside front cover, except the ioun wyrd and the petromin, are legal for play;
*snip*
the unusual familars on pages 30–31 are legal for play, except ioun wyrd.
