Why? You could easily fake LilyPond into beleiving that the previous
note is short than it actually is. For example, if you write
a2*31/32 s64
it will print an ordinary half note but the total duration of the note
plus the spacing note will also be half a note.

However, from your original question, it seems to me that what you
really want is
a2^1 \breathe

You also asked about how to move a 'tr'. The easiest way to find out is
to look up the section in the manual that describes how to get the
symbol. In this case it's
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Articulations.html#Articulations
At the bottom of this page, you will find a link to the Program
reference of the layout object that's responsible for the typesetting,
namely 'Script'. If you follow the link, you will only find a list of
the properties that are set by default, but if you go through the
different xxx_interface links at the bottom of that page, you will see
all the properties that can be set, among others the extra-offset
property.
If you instead go to the section on text scripts, you will find out that
the corresponding layout object is called TextScript. So if you have a
property setting that works for text scripts and want to use something
similar for articulations, you should just replace 'TextScript' with
'Script'.
