Sylvanas becoming Warchief seems to come from Afrasiabi. The Legion alpha had lines from Vol’jin after the Broken Shore about leaving to find someone who could help with the Legion threat, possibly in Zandalar. Kosak also responded to someone’s tweet during that time asking about Vol’jin, telling them that Vol’jin would absolutely have a major part to play and as Warchief wasn’t going to be pushed out of the story. Sylvanas becoming Warchief definitely wasn’t planned until Legion beta.
