Just a hunch.  Dumbledore and Snape know more than they're letting on
about what happened that night in Godric's Hollow and why Voldemort
couldn't kill Harry and why the spell boomeranged on him.  Dumbledore
tells Harry that he has a theory that the scar pain is connected to
Voldemort's moods; I doubt that he arrived at that theory that
particular week.  Dumbldore, in my opinion, has been waiting for some
indication from Harry that his scar hurts at times.

The Duelling Club was Lockhart's idea and I have no reason to doubt
it; Snape was there to make sure the glittery fraud didn't kill a
student in his attempts to actually duel.  I'm sure the idea of
testing Harry's parseltongue-ness was something Snape came up with
and used Draco to facilitate it because Draco would accept Snape's
suggested spell without asking questions if it meant showing up Harry
in public.  Snape's look at Harry is that of a man who's had his own
suspicion confirmed; he's not surprised that Harry is a parseltongue.
