I wonder what happens to all those devices that are brand new, but can't be sold any longer due to having the lightning port.

The law was passed years ago and only came into effect now exactly so that Apple could sell the old stock. If they kept making new ones until the deadline, its not the laws fault. Also, they can be sold outside the EU.
