I know only "series" - it means that you can upgrade units with smaller resources, if units have the same series.
I Hope I could help you more - but I am only an OoB starter.

counter: looks unfinished to me as only some unique entries exist. It’s possibly for the 2d tactical map view which I don't care about.

series: this is were you set variant families that reduce the cost when upgrading. When new variants appear at certain dates, you’ll see that green asterisk on the upgrade button in game.

ap: action points, as you can see see down in the list of units that the hangar has two, so it can release two aircrafts in the same turn. The airstrip has only one, hence only one take-off per turn. It also allows units attack several times per turn, but still repairing only once. No idea which other actions are still allowed more than once per turn by this setting.

steps: you can see at recon units that this setting allows the double/phase-moves.

spawn: unused so far. I’ve never bothered and don't know if it actually works. I have no need for kind of motherships with fighter-spawns in game so far… until someone brings the Andromeda and Haunebu ships in the game! ;)
