This appears to be a bug and it should be described on the first post (there's a specific section for that : "Known bugs : you tell me") as once it happens, it seems to exist no way out. It's really a critical bug.
I've tried different actions:
  1. flash Magisk
  2. clean cache
  3. clean dalvik
  4. delete files /data/system/locksettings* via twrp
  5. reflash the ROM
...but so far, the phone is still locked.
I don't know what to try next.
Perhaps it would be better to switch to another ROM?
To complete and conclude this story, here's what I have done since my previous post.
1/ Format data. Now the phone isn't locked anymore, and welcomes me like it's the first boot. But, of course, apps and everything are gone.
2/ Restore data (backed-up with twrp before formatting it). Phone is once more locked.
As I still don't know what caused the locking, I'm not willing to format data and reinstall apps one by one.
So I flashed ArrowOS (Android 10, the build from 2 weeks ago). A clean flash after wiping everything.
The phone greets me as expected.
After restoring my data back-up, everything seems OK. A few things here and there need to be set, but except for this, my apps are here and the phone works fine.
I will wait a little bit before claiming victory, because with Evolution-X the phone worked well for a few days before becoming locked.

In the meantime, it seems ArrowOS is a fine ROM (as is Evolution-X, except for the fatal bug I have encountered). Customization is a bit different between the two ROMs but I cannot say which one better suits me.
