All data for apple tv apps goes into cache (the tmp folder essentially). tvos itself then manages this cache, and deletes it as the OS sees fit. We have no control over that.

If you intend to want to save whatever data it is, do NOT save it on the apple tv, and make backups regularly.

I cant speak for jailbreaking, as i dont run any devices jailbroken.

I'll restate this again, do NOT expect data to stay on an apple tv app. Backup often, and utilise things like external sql databases (mysql/mariadb, etc) if you wish to retain watch/scraped data.

The only way this can/will change is by us supporting icloud storage. The issue we have with this approach, albeit the correct way in the end, is our db's can get quite large. So unless you're paying for extended icloud storage, that 5gb isnt going to go far, considering its shared with any/all other apps/backups on the icloud account. So my advice, even when this becomes possible, is to utilise external storage for DB's/data, and backup regularly.

Also addons cant creates anything inside tmp folder. 

Is this normal for non-jailbreak Apple TV 4K Kodi?
If I jailbreak Apple TV 4K, I will see all folders in Kodi?

Jailbreaking your Apple TV will allow you to access the full file system. This includes all Kodi folders such as Documents, Library, SystemData, and tmp. You can store downloaded content from Kodi here with no size restrictions except those imposed by the overall size of the Apple TV you own. The Jailbreak will give you full access to the /var/mobile/ folders such as /Documents and /Downloads which are you're own personal storage space which can hold data for indefinite periods. Apple TV 4k can now be jailbroken very easily with sideloaded jailbreak .ipa and Apple TV 4 (HD) can be jailbroken for life regardless of tvos version. Both methods eliminate the need to resign kodi every 7 days.

When Allow hardware accelerator VTBDecoder ON some tv channels not opening (only audio no display)(I am using tvheadend).

Provide a debug log, provide a sample that can reproduce the issue.

Issues will get fixed when people interested get around to them.
