Depends on the requirements. But for easy administration I would place
both users and groups in an external database (LDAP, mysql, whatever).

Squid supports pretty much any configuration but if you are not using LDAP
or one of the other standard user directories then you may need some
digging to find the correct helpers or even write your own. Writing
authentication or group helpers to Squid is not at all complex.

Yes.
