lyrics alignment

Hi,

currently, lyrics alignment is coded as a number, having the choice
between currently three different modes:

(grob-property-description 'alignment number? "alignment of lyrics on
notehead, -1 is LEFT, 0 is CENTRE, 1 is RIGHT .")

Chant notation will require an additional 4th mode: each syllable is
aligned according to the position of its first vowel.  I think, a
numerical value is not the proper coding for such a thing.  Since 2.0 will
be the big-syntax-change release anyway, how about changing the type of
alignment from number to symbol?

Greetings,
Juergen
