Domain controller is the physical object.
No the reason it's called a primary Domain Controller is because it's the one controller that has all the domain names and address for that Domain.

Domain controller
a domain controller (DCO) is a server that responds to security authentication requests (logging in, checking permissions, etc.) within the Windows Server domain
What is the RID Master role? The RID Master is one of the operations master roles that exist in each domain in a forest. It controls the sequence number for the domain controllers within a domain. It provides a unique sequence of RIDs to each domain controller in a domain. When a domain controller creates a new object, the object is assigned a unique security ID consisting of a combination of a domain SID and a RID. The domain SID is a constant ID, whereas the RID is assigned to each object by the domain controller. The domain controller receives the RIDs from the RID Master. When the domain controller has used all the RIDs provided by the RID Master, it requests the RID Master to issue more RIDs for creating additional objects in the domain. When a domain controller exhausts its pool of RIDs, and the RID Master is unavailable, any new object in the domain cannot be created
Metadata cleanup is used to remove the records and data of an crashed Domain Controller or an unsuccesful demotion of a Domain Controller. It is executed on a working domain controller using ntdsutil.
