You would add it as a new option. See `lilypond -dhelp` and
`lilypond -dhelp-internal` for lists of currently available
-d options (non-"-d" options are for fundamental setup like
--loglevel, all somewhat advanced options are under -d).
See also the Usage manual. You would add that option in
lily.scm around line 382 and implement it at the beginning
of lilypond-main from lily.scm.
