"tab" context menu is only implemented in Firefox. Are Chrome and Safari supportive of this API? If not, are there any issues with it?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/menus/ContextType

I'm working on an extension that auto-archives old tabs. It also has an option to manually archive (close and save the state) and unload (discard) a tab. These actions should really be context menu items for a tab, but currently, I have to use "action"/"page_action" instead.

Chrome doesn't have any active plans here. Actually, to the best of my knowledge no one has formally requested this capability before now. I just opened https://crbug.com/1385529 to track this feature request.

As @dotproto mentioned, this is tracked in Chromium (new URL: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40246822). I'm personally supportive of this for Chrome. We're not actively working on it, but may in the future.

WebKit has support for this now, and will be in an future Safari release.
