I don't know how well this fits into your workflow, but I'd be inclined to
trim the images after export using pnmcrop, automated by a Makefile
recipe.  Probably simpler than trying to get Lilypond to resize its "page"
to fit the material.  If you were exporting in a vector format, the
trimming operation might be harder, but trimming off white borders on
a PNG file is easy.
