How can I customize “Pages” admin (edit.php) and “Edit Page” admin (post.php) for bulk edit of custom content type?

Do not edit core files.

1.

Assuming you have a registered a custom post type called biblio, you can add and remove “stuff” within your functions.php.

For instance this removes some meta boxes from ‘biblio’

function remove_default_page_screen_metaboxes() {
 global $post_type;

 remove_meta_box( 'commentstatusdiv','biblio','normal' ); // Comments Metabox
 remove_meta_box('commentsdiv','biblio','normal'); // Comments
 remove_meta_box( 'trackbacksdiv','biblio','normal' ); // Talkback Metabox
 remove_meta_box( 'authordiv','biblio','normal' ); // Author Metabox
}
add_action('admin_menu','remove_default_page_screen_metaboxes');

you can remove and add meta boxes.

2.

By ‘bulk edit’ what exactly do you want to bulk edit? You screenshot shows what is called custom columns, you can add or remove these using the WordPress API
