None of those glyphs were changed in XITS, they are exactly the same as
the ones in STIX fonts, so possibly ConTeXt is using the wrong Unicode
character for those symbols. The later two are smaller with LaTeX
package unicode-math.

Right, there is no smallcaps, probably you can use some other Times-like
font for smallcaps.

Looks like a ConTeXt issue, both render the same with (xe|lua)latex
(using unicode-math).

Looks fine here.
