Does new purchase of PT include prior versions?
 
If one buys the latest software of Pro Tools does it come with access to download prior versions?
When buying a license for PT 12 (2018) HD, can one download PT HD 10?

No. Only people who had it prior and did an upgrade/reinstatement get to keep the older licenses when they upgrade and it becomes a new "bundle" license where the new 12 is bundled with 11, 10. Brand new licenses only give you 12.

Only if you want to continue getting new releases beyond the year that's included with an Upgrade Plan. If your Upgrade Plan expires you can continue with the version(s) provided since you have a perpetual license. You can upgrade or subscribe later if desired. Please check out the Pro Tools Licensing FAQ and let us know if you have additional questions. Thanks.

The Upgrade is linked from http://www.avid.com/pro-tools/upgrades-and-renewals though you could purchase it from a reseller if desired.

The upgrade is based on your Pro Tools license. Avid CS should be able to get your account fixed so you can link your iLok User ID and do the upgrade.
