You need physical access AND the device pin. None of these hacks allow you to decrypt the device without the pin. The best you can do is load malware that would grab the pin when the user types it in so the defense for this is if the government ever takes your phone for inspection make sure to reboot it before typing in a pin.
Even in the case of an evil maid attack, a device that has been out of your sight and then demands that you enter the passcode instead of allowing you to use biometrics is immediately suspicious.
Uh - this is the standard on iOS - after a certain amount of time or reboot or the power button x5 shortcut, iOS will demand your passcode instead of TouchID/FaceID.
But if the phone has never left your area of trust during that time, there's no problem. If the phone has, then force a reboot of the thing before typing in your PIN. Say you have to walk into a place that demands you relinquish your personal device, but when it is returned to you it requests your pin. The suggestion here is that you reboot your phone to help ensure this jailbreak wasn't done to you. It seems like a simple thing, and fairly painless in this case. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean...

Good point - I always turn off my devices when entering a checkpoint/border.
