You don't know the location of the staff lines, and you don't worry about
the location of the staff lines. You just need to set the staff-position
property of the grob, and the layout engine takes care of it like magic.
See lily/tab-note-heads-engraver.cc for an example, where the tab-note-head
is placed according to its string number.
