Do I need to break up my buffers/sends over a stream into MTU sizes

No, that is all done automatically by MsQuic.

Also do datagrams have lower latency than streams?

Only very slightly most of the time, but we are currently doing a lot of work to try to make streams the absolute lowest latency. The only place datagrams are really different is in the face of packet loss; they won't be retransmitted. You have the choice to do that or not when they're lost.
