Only I wanted to clear it before sending it for repair, from a security point of view.

"Erase all Content and Settings" is a secure wipe. It erases everything, and leaves it as it would be when you first take it out of the box, with it then asking for a very first iCloud or iTunes set-up.

Nope. Restoring a backup (whether from iTunes or iCloud) won't downgrade the firmware.
