Yes, generation of most such files have moved to the building phase
rather than the configuration phase, so to say.
The really quick way to get an individual file of this sort is to
simply make it, i.e.:
make include/openssl/opensslconf.h

Yeah, before 1.1.0, the public header files were spread around in
diverse crypto/ subdirectories, and they got symlinked into
include/openssl, or copied, on platforms that don't support symbolic
links. We moved them permanently to include/openssl in 1.1.0, which
means the symlinking is no longer needed.

I don't quite understand why .o files are a concern, they are the
normal object files that are used to build up libraries and
applications, and are produced in OpenSSL before 1.1.0 as well.
