Re: Yes, but perhaps no. Your guess is as good as mine.

Will Sigma ever release the 18-50mm F2.8 zoom for EF-M?
Does the Canon ban on 3rd party AF lenses for the RF mount apply to EF-M as well?
I would love to have this bright sharp standard zoom for my carry-around camera, and I really (really) don't want a SONY alpha.
The only other option would be a Leica APS-C camera in L mount, and they're not as well specced as M cameras in many ways (but nice in others).
Should I just be content with my 18-55 zoom with its competent IS and shoot higher ISO as the light falls?
The answer is no and that's not a guess. That Sigma lens needs some heavy distortion correction, for the M system this needs to be in camera distortion correction and Canon is not going to support this. So even if M wasn't a sunsetting mount it wouldn't happen.
The Sigma 56mm EF-M lens shows up in the menu on my M6II:

Well, I guess I stand corrected seeing this.
Did you upload a profile for this lens to your M6II?
No, it pulled it from the lens, like it does with RF lenses on R-mount cameras.
I strongly suspect EF-M was being used to prototype features for the R series, which makes me sad that we haven't seen any new bodies or lenses taking actual advantage of that.
Well, my argument is destroyed now.
Most of my Sigma lenses don't need distortion correction so much, however, the 100-400mm Contemporary on the R5 would benefit from it in some cases. But that's EF to RF, not ef-m on ef-m......

45 is more than enough, but 500.000 isn't
