How do I make sense of schematic diagrams?

To make sense of the diagrams, you will need the datasheets for the devices in there and a larger part of the schematic (one which shows where MPU_CLK, MPU_SIMO etc... connect to). E.g. typing MPU-60 …

What does it mean when a resistor symbol in a schematic has a value of zero or "NO-POP"

NO POP means not populated (i.e. the space on the PCB is there, but there's no component). In this case you'd install nothing. Zero-ohm resistors are used just for jumpers (so the same machinery can …

What are these schematic symbols in the HCPL3700? (square with arrows and overlapped circle)

The square with arrows is hysteresis, as evidenced by some of the electrical characteristics of the device. The overlapping circles are a current source.

Crystal oscillator in schematics

Since crystals usually do not have a polarity, they're just there since the CAD tool requires pin numbers for generating the PCB or writing netlists for simulators.

Good tools for drawing schematics

Fritzing might be what you're looking for. It has most of the "common" components (different Arduinos, LCDs, LEDs etc...).
