Shrub with red berries, arching branches - apparently the berries go from green through brown to red; I had only noticed the bright and obvious red before. Currently I saw both brown and red berries.

I think you've got two different species of honeysuckle here. The one with red fruit is probably Amur Honeysuckle, Lonicera maackii, which can be terribly invasive. I don't know what the plant withe the broader leaves and dark fruit is. A native Fly-honeysuckle perhaps? It's often easier to find good information online about invasives than it is for native plants.
