It is indeed documented in the TupletBracket internal documentation, just
click on the link to "tuplet-bracket-interface". Note that the 
properties listed
at the main page for TupletBracket in the internal documentation only 
contains
the properties that are set by default and that you have to browse 
through the
interfaces to get an exhaustive list.

For this particular property, this documentation is of course far too 
well hidden.
Also, as is commented in the source code, the semantics of this property is
really ugly, where keeping the property unset is almost (but not exactly)
equivalent to setting it to if-no-beam, see the following example.

\relative c'{
\times 2/3 {c16^"default" [ d e } f8] \times 2/3 {c8 d e }
\override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = #'if-no-beam
\times 2/3 {c16^"if-no-beam" [ d e } f8] \times 2/3 {c8 d e }
\override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
\times 2/3 {c16^"#t" [ d e } f8] \times 2/3 {c8 d e }
\override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##f
\times 2/3 {c16^"#f" [ d e } f8] \times 2/3 {c8 d e }
}
