staves with lyrics correctly

Thanks for your work, Carl.  I think the key word you used is "possible".   
It looks to me like the main reason your version works and I could not get  
it to work is that you've put a whole voice of spacer rests in the main  
staff - presumably this allows the spacing code to work better.  I can't  
see that as an acceptable solution, apart from as a temporary workaround.   
If I take your code (including the change to placing the lyrics  
with "alignAboveContext = MainStaff") apart from that, I get the ossia  
staff colliding badly with the staff above - see attachment.  This also  
includes all the spacing code, which has no effect.  If we compare this  
with the _default_ for 2.12 (no spacing overrides needed) then this must be  
a regression.  Trusting that Joe's fix works and solves this.
