Will the Apple Files app support open protocols like SFTP, SSH and WebDAV?

Currently, Transmit for iOS does file management, including attaching files to emails, https://panic.com/transmit-ios/

Probably not natively supported by Apple. But I'm guessing that the Files app just builds on the File Provider extension mechanism [1] that provides the document picker in apps, so Transmit can probably expose your servers too.

Yes, Transmit can add attachments today.

Hopefully they will be able to add the same iOS11 drag-and-drop features as Apple Files.
