Honestly, I think the simplest solution for now is to insert the
tempo text into the section label, even though that is not semantically
ideal.

\version "2.23.80"

\language "english"
{
  \sectionLabel \markup {
    \bold \smallCaps "Gigue"
    \hspace #0.5
    \fontsize #-3 { \rhythm {{4}} = 100 }
  }
  \repeat unfold 8 c''
}


If you still want the tempo reflected in MIDI output, you could
use the method shown in this snippet:
