Is there a chart showing the upgrade paths for the units? Something like
Warrior → Spearman → Pikeman…
for all of the units, similar to the chart on this site for vanilla.

Here, I just made one for you, based on information available from the actual game files.

Notes:
- This is updated up to the June 2011 patch and DLCs; however, unique units always upgrade in exactly the same way as the units they replace, so if some unique unit is missing from the chart above you can just find out what it replaces to see how it upgrades.
- Gun units and melee units are not the same - in particular, they differ in some promotions, you can check my promotion chart which uses the same icons.
- The Giant Death Robot is indeed considered an armor unit.
- Missiles, bombs and SS parts are non-upgradable (and removed from the chart for brevity).
In the unit overview (selectable from the top-left button), you can either double-click a unit - to select it and center your view on it - or you can click a unit and then, in the lower-left unit info box, either click its portrait or its name.
As far as I know there is no way to get an immediate overview of where all your units are, which is a shame - I would also be interested in something like that. They don't even appear in the mini-map in any form until after you select them...
You can find more information about the unit list (for example, what do the colors mean) in my answer to another question.

Although not as pretty as the chart on the other question, I made a basic version which is generated directly from the game files, and includes all unique units:

Notes:
In addition, there's a similar graph posted over at civfanatics. It's (much) prettier and lists strategic resources needed for each unit, though it does not list UUs.
