That's because at that point org is not loaded, but only registered at
the autoloading facility. As soon as you invoke one of them (e.g. with
a keybinding) org is loaded, and then the missing variables will be
defined as well.
But a variable doesn't need to be defvared before setting them, so you
can simply add
(setq org-export-latex-foobar "some nice setting")
to your emacs file although that variable isn't known at that time.
When org is loaded your values won't be overridden.

I think the those should be added automatically, and the encoding is
determined by the org file's encoding.

I didn't read that, but...

I think this should do what you want, e.g. enable babel with english and
francais options:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-export-latex-packages-alist
'(("english, francais" "babel" nil)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

If you want a new package in every exported document, add an entry of
form (OPTIONS PACKAGE nil) to the list above.
