For example, the BR would need to check a received packet from a CE whether it has correct source address in mapping rule or not. It means that the BR must know all address mappings for CE between IPv4 addresses and IPv6 prefixes. Is it correct understanding?

In the 4rd-E case, the BR checks that the source address in the IPv4 header matches that of the IPv6 address. There is therefore no need for the BR to know all IPv4 prefixes. At its IPv4 interface, all received packets start with one of them. At its IPv6 interface, all packets it receives have an embedded address that starts with one of these prefixes.

Yes, thanks.

I don't see that.
The bit that, in 4rd-U hub&spoke, is changed for the CE-to-BR direction has been included precisely to support this case. 
Otherwise, packets sent by a CE to another CE would be routed directly to its destination, without a detour via a BR.

All what is required is that CEs set an address bit if hub&spoke topology is required.
