Yes, so the next step in you search for the answer should be to check what
the value of stencil is for this particular grob. For example, for a 
TextSpanner,
the value is ly:line-spanner::print. Therefore, click on the 
line-spanner-interface,
where you will find the answer to your question.

The documentation of the style property should perhaps be extended by
something like
"... reading this property, see the documentation of the interface that
seems most related to the current setting of the stencil property."

That's the stencil type used for slurs, so you have already seen lots of 
them.
