Does it mean Richard Mille and McLaren went separate ways now?

Its either HAAS or McLaren. Or else they've added a third team to the list. I seem to recall Carrera being with another team aswell.

Richard Mille are joining Sauber because they're backing Leclerc. I'm sure they'll remain sponsors with other teams as well. So yeah, even the "non-pay drivers" have sponsors.

Of course, I dont really find the term pay driver very relevant.

Kappa was with a different team in 2017. Good scores for Sauber.

Seems like Sauber is doing very well in business side. I hope they manage to translate that to technical side performance soon too. (Maybe near the end of season already!)
