it seems to me that wall jumping is large part of reducing ones time.

but if its as useful as it is why wouldnt the programmers make it a earned ability?

also how does one perform the horizontal air dash?

The developers didn't feel the need to make it an earned ability, I guess. They have to give you something to start. It is quite useful though.

Run until you're flashing, then hit down to charge up the shine. Jump and hit left or right to dash in that direction.

My guess?  Same reason the Power Grip wasn't earned in Fusion -- it's something that Samus at least visually does without assistance.  In real life, you can't jump upwards off a wall and gain height like that... but in real life, you couldn't hang onto ledges in a heavy suit of armour either.  (That's why I thought it was dumb to make Power Grip a Chozo item in Zero Mission.)

You have to go to Overdrive Ostrich's area.  (It's in the sandy part of Maridia.)  If you have Wheel Gator's weapon, you can break through a destroyable wall and get to the Leg Capsule, where a holographic Chozo from the past gives you the upgrade.
