Thank you for the suggestion! In brief, this worked. I selected one icon in
Font Book, then Command-A (to select all), then copied and pasted the
selected content into Terminal.

Most of my Chinese fonts, it turns out, live in this very obscure folder …

System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_Font8/

… which I never would have found by searching within Finder. Only by
“pasting the icons into Terminal” was I able to ascertain the file paths.

I went to LilyPond and added

#(ly:font-config-add-font
"/System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_Font8/88d6cc32a907955efa1d014207889413890573be.asset/AssetData/Kaiti.ttc")

#(ly:font-config-display-fonts)

and compiled my file. The log .txt output included some Kaiti results.

So now

  \override LyricText.font-name = "Kaiti TC,"

is working!

Hat tip to Carl S here for his help, too.
