If you have music on your computer that Apple does not have and you do not have Match then that music won't be in iCloud. Music only provides the things Apple has, not a variant of Match where Apple is storing a copy of what you have on your computer or sharing its copy if it think it already has on in its collection
Yes, Apple Music will upload your files it does not have.
From the link I posted above:
"How does Apple Music know what songs are in my personal library?
With an Apple Music membership, your entire library lives in iCloud. We compare every track in your collection to the Apple Music library to see if we have a copy. If we do, you can automatically listen to it straight from the cloud. If you have music that’s not in our catalog, we upload those songs from iTunes on your Mac or PC. It’s all in iCloud, so it won’t take up any space on your devices."
"Does Apple Music work with iTunes Match?
Yes. Apple Music and iTunes Match are independent but complementary."
I think Apple still needs to define (to themselves) what the difference is between iTunes Match and Apple Music.
I don't really see any difference.
Personally, I think iTunes Match will go away as Apple Music generates more $$.
