What is the purpose of the ball? Why would you use it or not?

I use the ball on surfaces that are not flat like gauging tubing wall thickness a task that can be tricky otherwise.

What is the diameter of the shaft? I want to use this for measuring valve shims, they' sit on top of the valve stim

The diameter of the shaft on this tool is 0.255 inch , or 6.5 mm.

Would tool be suitable to measure the thickness of plastic film? The plastic is approximately5.5 millimeters thick?

The thickness of 5.5 mm is a little less than 1/4" so this tool should be perfectly fine for measuring the plastic.

Is this tool good for engine rebuilding? Such as checking crankshaft journals etc? Would you use the ball for measuring rounded parts like the crank?

This tool is 0 - 1 inch capacity. Crankshaft journals are much larger unless you are referring to lawnmower or similar small engines. I have seen good accuracy and repeatability with the one I bought. The ball is used to measure surfaces with a concave curve such as the inside wall of a piece of tubing or cylindrical shape.
