engine-cleanup only cleans up the engine. It does nothing to the hosts.
I am not aware of a similar "vdsm-cleanup" tool.
In principle, you could have moved your hosts to maintenance and removed them
from the engine. No idea what this would tell vdsm to do wrt to your question.
It definitely would not undo ifcfg-* changes.

See above, it's not in the scope for engine-cleanup.

I think it's somewhere under /var, adding Dan.

See above.

See also [1], which is for a hosted-engine host, not exactly your case
but similar. You are welcome to comment there, and/or open another RFE
bz for general hosts (not hosted-engine ones).

I might be wrong, though - perhaps there is something to undo ifcfg*
changes that I am unaware of. Dan?
