What will 8.1 do to my installation?

I have Classic Shell/Menu installed along with a couple of tweaks to
boot directly to the desktop, avoid the lock screen, etc.

If I install 8.1, will I lose those?

The ability to boot directly to desktop is built into 8.1. The most
recent versions of Classic Shell work fine with 8.1 Preview.

I would probably uninstall Classic Shell before upgrading, then
reinstall it.

Ditto that. They're moving in a positive direction. If you hated
Windows 8; you'll likely hate Windows 8.1 a little bit less. ~.1 ...
