>> Does anyone know of a flutist who uses circular breathing? <<

Can't remember anyone specific but I've seen a few flutists do it. Probably much rarer than on reed or brass instruments.

>> So, since (obviously, I would think) resistance is crucial to being able to do this, does wanting to use circular breathing on clarinet dictate to any extent the mouthpiece/reed combination you need to use? <<

Can't say for sure, but probably not. I don't know of anyone who changed mouthpiece or reed because of it. I always use a relatively light, non-resistant setup, and just stayed with the same setup from before I started to do it.
Resistance isn't "crucial" in that sense. It's possible to do on instruments/setups that are much less resistant than a clarinet.
