This is a matter of perspective and debate. The witches' motive in revealing this might be to cause Macbeth to take the actions he will take to make the prophecy come true, thus creating havoc and turmoil in the realm. Basically, they may be simply troublemakers. But it is also possible that they are the agents of fate, who act in this way to bring about the future which was in any case foretold.
Macbeth didn't make the prophecy, so it is not "Macbeth's prophecy" at all, but the witches' prophecy. Lady Macbeth of course liked the idea of becoming queen.
They seem to, yes. They know that they are going to meet Macbeth "when the battle's lost and won"; they know that he will be king and that Banquo's children will be kings.
Explicitly and in the following words: Hail, Macbeth, he that shall be king hereafter.

No, the witches are proclaiming and predicting that Macbeth will be king and they are praising Macbeth.
the witches told Macbeth that he would be king, and he is worried about his role in making the prediction come true.
The contents of Macbeth's letter to Lady Macbeth was about Macbeth's prediction from the 3 witches he met in the beginning - about him being the Thane of Cawdor (thane means prince/king) and then the King of Scotland. Lady Macbeth becomes hyped, because she was waiting for the chance to have all the power to be a queen.

The witches don't make Macbeth perform any dark acts, such as killing King Duncan; they just put the idea in his head. The witches tell Macbeth he is the Thane of Cawdor (which he doesn't know yet) and also tell him that he will be king. Once Macbeth finds out he is in fact the Thane of Cawdor, he begins to believe the witches' prophecies. Lady Macbeth convinces him that the only way Macbeth can be king is by killing King Duncan, and he does so. The witches' role in making Macbeth a tragic hero is to serve a catalyst for Macbeth's dark thoughts.

The three witches in Macbeth serve as supernatural elements that foreshadow key events in the play, manipulate Macbeth's ambitions, and contribute to the atmosphere of darkness and chaos. They also represent the theme of fate versus free will by presenting prophecies that influence Macbeth's decisions.
