From what I can tell, there are at least two issues you are fighting.
Firstly, adding \upbow to the spacer does not result in the articulation
being applied to the PercentEvent. All the \makePercent music function
does is use ly:music-length to measure the length of the music
expression supplied. None of the content within that music is
displayed.
Secondly, the documentation does mention that a PercentEvent consists
only of the percent symbol stencil itself. The following theoretically
could add the desired articulation, but as expected nothing else prints:
%%
(make-music 'PercentEvent
'length (ly:music-length note)
'articulations (list
(make-music 'ArticulationEvent 'articulation-type "upbow")))
%%
There is a simple workaround, however, which is to attach the
articulation to an empty chord before the percent repeat:
%%
cello = \relative c {
a4(\downbow b c d) |
<>\upbow \makePercent s1 \bar "||"
}
%%
The resulting alignment might not be to your taste, as the articulation
ends up positioned towards the left side of the measure, not centered
above the percent symbol. But you should be able to tweak that manually
as desired:
%%
<>-\tweak X-offset #1.5 \upbow
%%
