Personally, I actually hope that they're doing the Luthor route with Superboy's genetic origins. It would be a really cool plot twist and it would create a whole lot of drama for him and Clark, which by the way, is the thing that attracts viewers to this show. Plus, I mean, come on! Conner HAS to be part-Luthor. He's just too much like Kevin Levin on the "Ben 10" shows not to be. He's bad-tempered, cocky, and really bad-boyish, which I noticed most of all in "Drop-Zone". Him being a Luthor would really explain all that. Also, for your question on why Conner would need someone else's DNA, it would probably be to stabilize him since like in the comics, it's probably very difficult to stabilize Kryptonian DNA. I'm sorry, but they just have to do it.
