What's wrong with C-g? It's the standard Emacs way to exit any kind of
state.
But it seems with a tiny patch (see below), we can make this command
work nicely with delete-selection-mode too.

Subject: [PATCH v1] Don't delete selection after indent-rigidly
* lisp/indent.el (indent-rigidly): Pass `deactivate-mark' as the ON-EXIT
function to `set-transient-map', this prevents `delete-selection-mode'
from deleting the text that was just indented.
