Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.
Focus your gaze up ahead, look as straight as you can. There’s no point in looking at your skidding tire. You can check your mirrors, but the action of skidding itself is warning enough for the other people following you. Unless they are blind, then you’re dead.
Now that you have learned it. The muscle memory should kick in once the scenario calls for it.
Do you think Andrew Tate and Nigel Farage are part of a "similar phenomenon"?

If you have an extra chain, I assume you know how to fit a new one into your bike. Do it. If not, call a tow truck. Calling a friend is exciting too. I’ll tell you why in a moment.
Turn on your flashers, and signal to pull over to the right. Use your right hand if you need to.

Yes, lock it up.
Going back to your scenario 2, your rear wheel is locked up. Relax, and let your muscles remember what to do.

Two scenarios could happen here.

On an empty road, much easier if it’s some kind of rough road. Some dust, rubble, or even sand could make the practice easier. Actually, sand would make it hard if you don’t have enough power.

Don’t ride a heavy bike.
Anyway, depending on your speed you can still control that skid.
The chain got jammed between the swing arm and the sprocket, or Anywhere for that matter.
You can only do this up to 20km/h. Anything faster than that, you’re just calling for another more fatal accident. But hey, I’m not saying it’s impossible.
First, relax.
Why did we evolve to have so many nerve endings in our anuses?
Look at your side mirrors, and check for possible overtakers behind you.

This could be tiring, but it’s doable. And you need to have a strong leg.
Relax.
