thanks a lot for the hint. It works like a charm. For others want to do
the same, I did the following:

- configured nginx with --with-stream --with-stream_ssl_preread_module

- For https listened on stream:

stream {
proxy_protocol on;

upstream webserver {
server 127.0.0.1:443;
}

map $ssl_preread_server_name $name {
default webserver;
}

server {
listen <ip>:443;

proxy_pass $name;
ssl_preread on;
}
}

- In my http context, I added:

set_real_ip_from 127.0.0.1;
real_ip_header proxy_protocol;

- And in my https listen directives I put:

listen 127.0.0.1:443 ssl http2 proxy_protocol;

I didn't even had to modify the access_log logformat because apparently
'real_ip_header proxy_protocol' takes care of that.

Cheers,
Thomas
