Hi,
(1) the above thing is the correct one, simplifying the fpga has a flash memory inside to store the bitstream that configures the god given routing resources so the LUTs etc interconnect as in the netlist.
(3) I think you can do it with an actual fpga divided in two logical tiles, one reconfigures the other and vice-versa.

If you mean a technology that allows an electrical circuit to alter its own topology as a result of it's operation, I can't think presently of anyone, but that's as far as I commit.
