Hi Yvan, Great to see you here, especially asking _those_ questions. I may even have answered some of them in the vst plugins list in tn the early 200's :-)
There have been Ambisonic VST plugins (at least just first order ones) for at least a dozen years - in the early days (Nuendo 1) they would even plugin in in place of Nuendo's own panners, tho' this ceased to be possible after Steinberg essentially "oulawed" the the use of other panners going in place of the builtins :-( . Just as a heads up, the two biggest problems with present versions of Nuendo are the limits on the number of channels in a bus and that, really annoyingly, "mixconvert" is forced on you when two differently channeled buses connect, meaning that if you have a 16 speaker decoder being fed first order signals, you have to use 16 channel buses throughout, even though you should only need 4 channel buses everywhere except at the output. It's a shame as I actually have always liked Nuendo and if they can at last be corrected I would be delighted to go back to using it. Not only that but I would become interested in converting to VST 3 and reworking my plugins.
