Do Nintendo DS cartridge batteries (do those games have batteries?) run dry after some time like GBA/GBC/GB games? Is it true that they will last at least 100 years or something?

A DS cartridge is like a micro SD card, so they don't have any battery inside.
And regarding life expectancy of an SD card I'll quote SuperUser:
As most games save less than once or twice per ten minutes, I'd say that the electronics in a cartridge will go bad before you cannot save anymore. You will not be able to exhaust its write cycles. So, it should work for at least 40 or 50 years.
