also in the finale, when they are not watching, it is Don Juan, they rerecorded exactly the same music.
So musically speaking it is not a quote, at least in terms of composition techniques.
True.

The "Madness Motif" from Psycho being referenced in Star Wars.
Yes, that's an interesting one. I don't see how it could be meant as a contextual quote that should be recognized by the moviegoer (and even if they recognized it, it would make no contextual sense), yet it seems to be deliberate.
I wonder if that was an inside joke, if it was temp tracked with the piece, if it was simple homage to the (then) recently deceased Bernard Herrmann... I don't know.

Paul Hirsch, one of the Star Wars editors, was interviewed for a documentary for the Psycho DVD and he mentioned using the Psycho motif in the temp track for Star Wars. I don't recall if he said Williams use of it was intentional. However, I've read elsewhere that Williams' use of the Psycho motif was NOT intended to be a nod to Herrmann, but simply it was in the temp track and Williams used it in the score. When I find the source, I will update my post. I guess only Williams knows for sure and I doubt he's ever been asked the question. Herrmann used that motif in a few of his other scores, including Taxi Driver.

so it is some random material which appears by accident, which is not what
the idea of a quote is
That's true, if it was in the temp track, then it wasn't Williams' idea as a nod or paying homage considering Williams didn't create the temp track.

John Barry in "The Man With the Golden Gun" referenced the previous film's "Live and Let Die". It was a cute tounge-in-cheek reference.
(And while I brought up Bond, there was the scene in OHMSS with all the past gadgets and tracked music, another cute moment, and the guy whistling the "Goldfinger" theme at another point in the film.)
LALD?
Missed that one. I assume it has to do with the , hilarious' Sherrif Pepper?
