Whether the metal roof is attached to steel framework or wood framework the screws with the rubber washers will last very well. I have a building built in 1986 in north Texas and it holds up to the heat very well. The only problem you might experience is if the building isn't insulated. During damp weather condensation will form on the roof on the inside and rain inside the building. The building I have I installed fiberglass panels here and there for a skylight and water drips from them. The rest of the roof is insulated and there is no problem.
With a shingled roof keep in mind the roof is heavier and needs a lot more framing to support it than a metal roof. This adds a lot to the cost of doing shingles.
I would use metal building insulation for a vapor barrier. It looks nicer than OSB and makes the building a lot cooler in summer. It comes in rolls 4' to 6' wide.
