If you use Dreams of the Sphinx (or other similar "hand size increase
until end of turn" effects), are you considered to be doing the
discarding during the discard phase (since it is, ostensibly, the
last phase of the turn), or is there an "end of turn" after that?

Could I, for example, tap the Dreams to increase my hand size, and then
use Rachel Brandywine to shuffle the 2 extra cards into my library when
I discard back down?

Similar question:
Can I tap Fragment of the Book of Nod during my discard phase and use
Rachel's ability when discarding back down?

The former.

If you do so on your turn (i.e., you tapped the Dreams on your own turn,
not on someone else's), yes.

Yes.
