I haven't been able to find anything about optimal control with all of:

non-linear dynamics/model
non-linear constraints
both discrete and continuously parameterized actions in the output space

but in general, discovery of papers/techniques in control theory seems to be much harder for some reason

This is because the information is in the books.

Yet nonlinear breaks everything there. The usual approach is to linearize at well-chosen positions and compute the control using the closest linearization.
