I'm going to be a lich.
I get the keep my mind and memories, so I'm not some dumb zombie going babbling "brrrrlll" here and there, seeking brains. I'm fairly powerful so I can pull out my own weight, enough to become the necromancer's right arm. And if it comes to the worst I can always backstab the necromancer and become the boss, as typically lichs have their own necromancy.
Objectively the best answer. Plus, as long as you hide your phylactery well, there's not much the necromancer can do to keep you in line.
I'd expect my phylactery to be with the necromancer at the start, for exactly this reason. So I think that a lot of my job in my first days [years?] as an undead is to get their trust so I can: replace my phylactery with a copy, hide the original, and proclaim my independence.
You know you have to feed a soul to your phylactery like every few days. Who’s gonna get got?
Prisoners.
Is your Phylactry also a notebook where you write their names?
Yeah. I wish that my phylactery was just "hide it somewhere and pretend that it doesn't exist", but bloody Light doesn't let me have my way, got to write a name every 13 days.
Do souls have sizes, like "you need at least the soul of a medium sized dog or pig"?
Because if every soul is worth equally much, just set an anthill on fire and be done for the foreseeable future.
Of course, as your next course of action, you should make up for the damage done to your local eco system, but that should be doable within the powers and lifespan of a lich.
This EcoLich build definitely sounds like the way to go.

Can liches shape-shift, if so I want to become one so I can swap my bodies sex
Probably, given that they're good spell casters. You could for example cast "alter self", and look like your desired sex. The main problem is that those spells are typically short-lived, they last minute~hours, so after the time ends you're again a skeleton or decaying corpse.
