Does this mean Apple will add USB-C functionality beyond just charging? For example, connecting to hard drives.

No, that'll be up to Apple to implement if they choose to. The only EU requirements are USB-C for charging, and USB-PD for charging protocol.

They could remove all USB data functionality completely if they wanted to, the EU law is only about device charging.
