Does the benefit of the Savage Attacker feat apply to additional effects like the rogue's Sneak Attack or the paladin's Divine Smite?

No. The benefit of Savage Attacker applies only to rolls of the weapon's damage dice, not to any extra damage that a feature or other ability might grant.

Official rulings on how to interpret rules are made here in the Sage Advice Compendium. A Dungeon Master adjudicates the game and determines whether to use an official ruling in play. The DM always has the final say on rules questions.
The public statements of the D&D team, or anyone else at Wizards of the Coast, are not official rulings; they are advice. The tweets of Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford), the game's principal rules designer, are sometimes a preview of rulings that appear here.
