I wonder whether there are clock generators with on-chip temperature sensing...

Yes: "an advanced, low-power, high-performance mobile clock generator with four clock outputs. The device integrates a MEMS resonator, temperature sensor and a temperature-to-digital converter (TDC), which eliminates the need for external crystal and temperature-sensing crystal resonators." -- https://www.sitime.com/products/clock-generators/clock-gener...

From TFA: "Some commercial PTP implementations use packet delay variation (PDV) filters [27], and compensate for known latencies in the receive and transmit paths."

This is phrased vaguely. All gPTP implementations are required to compensate for link delay (not necessarily rx/tx asymmetry).
