Is there even a way to get iCloud or Google photos on the iPhone to only upload photos taken with the camera, to not spam one's photo account with chat garbage?

I was trying to figure out a way, but got side tracked on the issue, then my phone got stolen and I lost a bunch of family/baby pictures (thanks Google/apple).

WhatsApp has a setting you can disable:

Settings → Chats → Save to Camera Roll

Not sure about other messaging apps.
