How the priest labored on the sabbath and were guiltless. Same as the poor, hungry, orphans, and widows partaking in the things given unto the Levites Deuteronomy 26:12.

Yes, you are right about the stealing thing. David is a little different situation. I have heard people that said David was a priest because he ate the shewbread, or because he called for or even wore the linen ephod, but Jesus makes it clear that David eating the shewbread was illegal because it was only for the priests. Evidently Jesus did not consider David a priest.
