Re: instrument name padding

[Mats Bengtsson]

I don't have access to a running LilyPond for the moment, but I guess
that the relevant property to adjust is the space-alist of the
InstrumentName object. Also, since the corresponding engraver lives
in the Staff context by default, you have to explicitly say
\override Staff.InstrumenName ...
