For text spanners, there is a simpler interface.
details at the left are taken either from bound-details.left
or from the combination of bound-details.left-broken and
bound-details.left. In this case, just set the
property in left-broken accordingly.

  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.text = \markup {\bold rit. }
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left-broken.text = ""
