Aha! So the trick is to use \markup.

I try to typeset the word "There's", with a decent apostrophe. This
would lead to

   \markup {"There"#(ly:export (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #x2019))"s"}

This produces the word There's with a nice apostrophe, however the
spacing is wrong (slightly exaggerated it looks like "There ' s").

The spacing is right when I cut/paste the unicode character directly
in the text but this is not the way I want to do it.
