I wouldn't add gravel because of the sharp edges...but those rounded stones or pebbles or river rock that you can buy at home improvement stores are really attractive. And if you are planning on putting fish in the pond it gives them something to root around in. But eventually the algae and normal pond sediments will make those stones unnoticeable.

You can add gravel, or river rock, or you could even spackle on some cement, and stick the rocks to that. The cement might break up after a while though, and accidentally plugging any drains or filters would be bad for the pond.

Use smooth stones, and for in the future when the algae starts to grow, if your pond is not filtered, buy a couple of algae eating fish. They will help keep the algae down and your pond looking nice, of course you will need an alternative holding type tank for them for in the winter so they don't die during the cold months.

Sure you can. Make sure its a clean gravel or rock without a bunch of debris in it.
