I don't think that MS has ever made an official statement, but it is most likely because they don't care to stop it from doing that.  As far as it can see, Windows bootloader is the only one you should be using and anything else is a mistake.

 

That really depends on what you are using it for.  If you just want to browse the web and chat, 20GB will be excessive, if you want to play games then you are going to need a lot more.

So how do I set this up to dual boot? I haven't dual booting something in years.

If you already have Windows installed then when you go to install Manjaro there should be an option to install alongside what you already have, you will set the drive amount assigned to Windows and to Linux at the time.  Once you have done that it is a fairly simple procedure.  I would just recommend that you keep your install media around in case you need it for troubleshooting later.

Which one of these external drive enclosures would work with Manjaro?

Either should be fine.  Seriously, they are just drive holders, unless they have something really weird going on which one you pick you have no effect (besides speed) on your experience with Linux or any other OS.
