Honestly unless you're super committed to that frame I'd find another bike. However there are some considerations if you're pressed on budget.
The bars, here's a flat bar on Amazon:

Some tektro levers, and brakes are your best bet. Good value and performance.

These may not fit the bars, the clamp diameter wasn't listed.
Of course then all new cables, grips for the bars, and a new chain might also help. I just gathered those components on price alone. So if you have money to spare then I encourage it. As is, that bike wouldn't have my time or money, however if I were to upgrade it that's the way I'd do it. Cheers.
You can adjust the travel of the dérailleur so it doesn't pop off. Other than not keeping the index I never had trouble with mine. I prefer friction mode though and that is a very cheap option. A pair of them can run as little as $9.
