If you display your library in List View, there is an optional Steam Cloud column which displays a cloud icon if a game supports saving to the Steam Cloud.

Regarding whether games sync saves or just preference files and the like: there's no way to tell for certain besides checking the descriptions or asking other players / the developers. However, the vast majority of Steam Cloud - supporting games, at least from my experience, will sync both saves and user preferences. In fact, I haven't heard of any instance where only preferences were synced to the Steam Cloud, except multiplayer games without local save files.

The Steam game hub discussions for each game might be a good place to ask other players if you can't find the information elsewhere.
