There's no automatic way to do this. Probably the easiest way to
achieve what you want to do is by using the \shape command, which is
new in 2.16.0. Here's part of your example:
\version "2.17.5"
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "1" {
\key cis \minor
s1
}
\new Staff {
\relative c {
\clef bass
\key cis \minor
% if using versions older than 2.17.4, use
% \shape Slur #'((0 . -6.5) (0 . -6) (1 . -10) (0 . -6))
\shape #'((0 . -6.5) (0 . -6) (1 . -10) (0 . -6)) Slur
cis8[( gis']
\change Staff = "1"
gis'8 e)
s2
}
}

In recent development versions, there's been a change in the syntax of
the command. I show you the older version as a comment in the example
above.
You can find documentation for the command here:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/modifying-shapes
In the newer development versions, you can also use the command as a tweak.
HTH,
David
