Yes, use a VB behind the walls of the shower.
On the exterior wall, either use unfaced insulation batts, or
take a razor and put a handful of cuts through the kraft paper or plastic
that is on the insulation.
Overlap the tub flange, Yes.

No VB on ceiling.

I don't know about putting a fan IN the shower, but one installed in the
bathroom is a good idea. (I'm not saying it's a bad idea..... I don't know)

It's easyest to use 6mil plastic, so you can see through it and you can find
it in large rolls. For the rest of the bath, I'd use regular drywall, Greenboard
is falling out of fashion.

For the VB in the rest of the bath, I'd follow EM69's advice,
All I know about is puttin a shower together.
