Specifically, I think you would need to use the powers to amend to Constitution, per Article V, to make changes to the judicial powers provided for in, I think, Article III, so that those legal interpretations of either existing law or the Constitution itself could somehow be “reversed” by an act of Congress.

Nope, you add an Amendment to the Constitution, the Supreme Court could not rule on squat against that since that new amendment is now part of the Constitution and the supreme law of the land (In theory, we are waaayyyy past adhering to the original intent of our Republic though).
13th Amendment overrode the precedent set in the Dred Scott decision along with several other Amendments which "took care" (Some for the worst like the 16th Amendment) of some Supreme Court decisions.
