Does the main menu Help "stuck restart" option help at all?
All that does is take you from where you are on foot and reunite you with your ship.
Though there may be some caveats to prevent
The first answer by @deleteduser already was the right one. Suicide (or otherwise die), then take the freewinder option. You lose the ship, you spawn at your original first system.
Depending on the Thargoid state, you also might be able to hitch a ride on a carrier, if you can make it to that carrier in-system. But not all Thargoid states permit carriers in the system (IIRC Alert does, Controlled doesn't, Attack I didn't check). Not sure if or how multi crew works in Odyssey (or at all, tbh) - it just might be feasible to hitch a ride as on-foot CMDR in multicrew with another CMDR, then disembark at the target system and have your ship transferred (provided you remembered to have all cargo, including limpets, removed before you started). But we're clutching at straws here.

It does undock you and put you away from the station, which might be enough to escape.
It isn't just "on foot" - it covers SRV / Scorpion as well* and I was under the impression that it could be used in other situations - like at the bugged barnacle site and, I thought, the stations under attack. @Disemboweled Ego seems to support that latter supposition, be nice to have confirmation.
* It is supposed to relocate you to a "safe" location - in orbit. Not just reunite you with your ship but of course it does that.
You'll still need to make it to a safe system - OP's issue were the interdictions (possibly hyperdictions).
I've been flying out of Levi Strauss for days running evacuation missions and also doing combat there. You should be able to plot a course to a neighbouring system, launch, boost away from the outpost to get out of mass lock and jump. If you have heatsinks, use them to keep heat under 20% for as long as possible or use silent running until you need to charge the FSD. Hyperdictions don't happen leaving Imeut, and if you jump out to another system without going into supercruise you avoid interdictions.
If you want a known safe location close by to repair before going elsewhere, my fleet carrier is open to all but notorious and has repair, refuel, restock services:
