Will Games from keys/dlc stay with your account.

[Zawius]

I'm buying a new computer probably in the next few months so I just thought will all my games/dlc stay in my library and could be downloaded on my other computer.

Most of my games/dlc are purchased as steam keys.

I know that Steam purchased games will stay in my library but what about game/dlc keys purchased from other website?

What about dlc:s bought for free2play games? Will they stay in my library and I can download them with the free game?

This might be a stupid question but I just want to make sure that all my key purchases too will stay in my library.

If you activated the keys for your Steam account, yes.

Yes. They are attached to your account, which is saved online.

Of course. Everything in your Steamaccount is bound to your Steam account.
It does not matter if they were bought directly on Steam or activated on Steam with a product key.
It does not matter if it's a game or a DLC.

Most of the time, yes.

Free2play games and it's DLC might be different, most if not all free2play games requires that the game is still online and sometimes they shut down. This happened with marvel heroes recently.

Even some paid games has DLC that just unlocks something for an account, I think most ubisoft games does that? You get a key from steam that you paste into the game.

Still as far as Steam is concerned you still own the DLC, what the game does knowing you have it is another question.
Steam treats DLC as more files to send to your PC when you download the game or a key you can copy. You will never lose that.

Tip: You can just transfer the /steamapps/ folder to your new computer and you won't have to re-download everything. Steam will automaticaly recognize the existing library.

You can even transfer the whole steam folder (assuming your steamapps library is stored inside it)
