when the heck did they get the ability to teleport?

Tabletop pathfinder has a general trend that higher HD outsiders have a broader range of spell-like abilities. Regular Babau have greater teleport at will.

In-game, possibly for balance reasons, they probably didn't give the standard Babau that sort of advantage: possibly for plot as well (3 dozen teleport right into the Inn, game over). But it shouldn't be all that surprising that the beefier infiltrators get it, especially towards the end of the game.

It may also depend on the difficulty options you have active. One check box expands the enemies spells and abilities, though the only difference I've seen with that is the rate of dispel magic popping off.
