that information is generally not passed to markup commands. Markup
deals with layout, and does not know about musical concepts such as
"length of a measure". You have to delve into

  lily/multi-measure-rest-engraver.cc

which will need some adaptation to pass the info you need to a Scheme
function. (Unfortunately,  the mm rest engraver is one of the more
complex engravers.)
