Broken inheritance

Yes, user1 can have access to whole document library. Go to Document library settings > Permissions settings for library > Break permission inheritance and grant permissions to user1.
User1 should be able to reach the document library by using library URL or from your Subsite B. If user1 is not able to find the document library from Subsite B, grant Limited access to user1 at Subsite B site level permissions manually.

Your understanding is correct. By default, User1, not being part of any group at Site A or its subsite B, should not have access to Document Library 1. To test this, you can utilize a trial or free SharePoint Online subscription to experiment with permissions and see how it works in practice.
