I've read about Kitsune, a character from Shadowrun for the Super Nintendo, but so far I haven't seen anything about what her species is? Is she a metahuman, or is she just a human with body mods (magical or otherwise)? If she's a metahuman, then what's her species called?

Kitsune is, as suggested by her name, a Fox Shapeshifter. Shapeshifters are an alternate race in 3rd Edition along with ghouls and metavariants. Further information can be found in the Shadowrun Companion sourcebook.
Long story short: Shapeshifters are Awakened animals who have the ability to assume human form.

Reckon they'll ever be a playable race in Awakened Worlds, the Shapeshifters I mean.

No, as far as coded races go. Shapeshifters, along with Otaku, Magician Way Adepts and Drakes, won't be added simply due to how unbalanced they are. They're not as bad in tabletop, where their growth is minuscule in comparison to MUD mechanics.
You might (a lot of emphasis on 'might') be able to talk Rammy, the resident RP Imm, into letting you make a Shapeshifter, but after dealing with so many cat-boys and cat-girls ruining things for everyone you'll have to forgive any snubbing that may occur. Poor guy, nobody should have to suffer through those.
Oh, also, Shapeshifters have even less rights than SINless, they're not classified by law as sentient metahumans and are treated as dangerous paracritters, which puts them on the same page as rabid dogs and sewer rats. Could be worse, just a smidgeon further north of Seattle and you'd be dealing with open bounties and quick creds for anyone turning in Shapeshifter corpses.
Happy Hunting.
