Everyone with type immunities can do it for those types, I guess?

they did change Sturdy, but it was a buff -- now they outright can't be OHKO'd, regardless of whether or not it's a OHKO move

They did buff Sturdy: now a pokemon with Sturdy will survive any attack that would KO it in one hit IF they had full health, in addition to being immune to OHKO attacks.

PokemonDB tells me that there are 41 Pokemon with the ability Sturdy. that's probably counting, for example, Geodude, Graveler, and Golem as 3 different Pokemon. but it's still a sizable number.

Focus Sash prevents Pokemon from being OHKO'd if they have full health, yes. I'm not sure what effect it has on OHKO moves though

It does: apparently, OHKO attacks work by doing 100% of the target's HP in damage. So the Focus Sash is basically the Sturdy ability in item form(I'm not sure, but I think there was at least one gen in which the Focus Sash existed as it does, but Sturdy only protected specifically against OHKO attacks and not garden-variety one-shots.)

Gen 4.

Focus Sash was first introduced in Gen 4, Sturdy was buffed in Gen 5.

there was also Focus Band, which existed pre-Gen 4, which had a chance of leaving a pokemon with 1 HP regardless of how much they had before the attack.
