Why do cold sores or canker sores cause shooting pains into your head ear and chin?

I'm not a medical professional, but my guess is that, if it's in the right place, the sore can irritate your trigeminal nerve. Since it's responsible for facial sensation, a severe enough amount of pain (especially in the cheek or jaw) can "refer" pain to your ear, chin, or neck.

Is it common to have a burning tongue and inner lip after wisdom teeth are removed?

Yes. Because wisdom teeth extractions are performed around nerves that affect the jaw and tongue, it's not unusual to loose ALL sensation to parts of the lip, tongue, or chin. A tingling sensation indicates less damage than no sensation at all. The sensation generally returns to normal after a short time, but there are instances when the numbed or tingling sensation continues for a year or two. There are even unusual cases where the nerve damage is permanant.
