I would rule that the wielder has to choose between the standard 1d8+mod from Shillelagh or the 1d6 plus poison, but they can't mix them together. However I don't think it would be game-breaking to allow Shillelagh to be cast on it solely for allowing the wielder's casting stat to be used for the attack instead of Strength. The wording of Shillelagh explicitly says it works on a club or quarterstaff. The tricky part is that some magic staves explicitly say they can be wielded as a quarterstaff, the Staff Of The Adder does not. I’m not sure on whether the special ability die would become a d8 and use your spell casting ability, but it doesn’t seem overly powerful anyway compared to the staff as is. The spell says “becomes magical, if it isn’t already.” All staves can be used to make a melee staff attack.
