How would I go about applying the Ability Focus feat to Bardic Performance? Would it be "Ability Focus-Bardic Performance" or do I have to select an individual ability, like "Ability Focus-Suggestion"?

You don't. No form of Bardic Performance is listed as a "special attack", so the Ability Focus feat doesn't apply to them.
That's strange, the Lillend has Bardic Performance as a Special Attack:

No, but if Bardic Performance is considered a special attack, then Ability Focus could be applied to it, couldn't it?

I concur with that. If and when a Bardic Performance is considered a special attack (as with the Lillend example) and your GM is okay with a PC taking a "Monster Feat", then it should indeed work.
You would have to list the specific ability not just bardic performance.

There is rules caveat requiring DM approval for Ability Focus.
It just happens to be such a common houserule, that many assume it is an actual rule.
