If the level rises when the brakes are pressed, then guaranteed failed master cylinder. As for the cooling system, there's a bleeder on top of the thermostat housing to bleed air...you can try using that. Or you can remove the thermostat housing and fill coolant the rest of the way through there...that'll eliminate the majority of it in the engine. Remove heater hose from alternator bracket and "beer bong" it with coolant to eliminate air in the heater core.
