国外-上海（停留）-东京出境-国内。 这样也算transit吧，飞机只是在SH停留，并没有出境的。

I'm not sure if it can be considered as transit
apparently, your trip contains china-japan-china
it should be country A-japan-countryB
they will at least doubt why you bother the shanghai-tokyo-china trip because it costs money and time

I would say the best way is to call your local consulate
the requirement differs from city to city..
eg. it's easier to get transit visa at NYC than DC
