Based on my read of the available literature, this should equip the car with the necessary hardware, right?

It seems like Parking Assist shouldn't be required, but that's the one I am least sure about.

I'll worry about the actual coding part when I get there.
In the EU you only need DA+ with ACC and TJA is added automatically (post Dec 13).

I didn't think TJA was available for the US market, and it's unlikely to be retro fit. TJA works with different software for the ACC than standard DA+ although both use a front camera/radar, mounted in the grill. It also has a steering wheel with pressure sensors to ensure that at least 2 fingers are in contact with the wheel at all times. This works in conjunction with the Lane Departure Warning system, as it steers the car between the white lines.
