No it doesnt. It says you can upgrade the ps4 version to PS5. Rollback is limited to pc and modern gen. Also current gen versions will be complete editions with all dlc and season pass content so yeah.

As a complete fighting game amateur, what does "rollback" mean in this context?

it's an alternative way of handling netcode, where the game basically takes the inputs of both players, tries to predict an outcome, and (if there's some sort of error) will go back to a previous state
it removes input lag but has its own problems

Too complicated to explain simply. But it makes fighting games better online is all and brings it one step closer to relocating the experience of fighting in person by reducing lag and input lag and such.

How does rollback handle RNG, like say with Platinum in BBTAG? Her 4A has her do either a rock/paper/scissors motion as an attack, and her 6P assist also has 3 random variations.

Rollback NC the biggest buzzword in gaming since raytracing and VRR

Anyway this is a good thing, looking forward to the game in 4K and 60fps (I hope).

So if I have it on PS4, but I dont have a most of the DLC, I wonder if that means I will get all the DLC when I upgrade for free?

They haven't detailed the upgrade path. But other upgrades didn't work like that. Like FF7 Remake and Control had a separate product when they came to PS5 for example. FF7 was free upgrade but didn't include the dlc because that was a separate thing. But Control "couldn't be free" because you couldn't upgrade without the DLC as every PS5 version came with that DLC.

I'm good either way because I bought every season pass when they were discounted at least I hope so.

Yes. And they said they weren't doing any more season passes or new characters or balance patches. I imagine they're working on something else.

No they likely won't carry over for free. Hell, even upgrading might require a modest charge.

That's a pity, through a bit poetic how this game started with the son being overpowered dunker and ends with the mommy being over powered blaster.
