Intro to Psychology vs General Psychology: the same course?

Usually, yes. Texas's common course PSYC 2301 General Psychology is “a survey of the major psychological topics, theories and approaches to the scientific study of behavior and mental processes”, and Georgia Tech names its first course Introduction to General Psychology. Check the size, though: Illinois's Intro Psych carries 4 credit hours, and Oregon State teaches Introduction to Psychology as two courses.

It is an introductory course: College Board lists no recommended prerequisites for AP Psychology, and Psychology 110 lists none either. What takes time is the amount of material: 16 chapters and 68 instructional hours, from the brain and memory to disorders and therapy. It is self-paced, so you can go as slowly as you need.

At colleges that take them, yes. College Board describes AP Psychology as “A one-semester, introductory college course in psychology”, and CLEP Introductory Psychology covers a “one-semester undergraduate introductory course in psychology”. A CLEP exam costs $97 plus a test center or remote proctoring fee, which is cheaper than a course if your college gives credit for it; each college sets its own score policy. A course suits you if you would rather learn the material in lessons first.
