Description

Considering a use case when ngx_stream_ssl_preread_module (ssl_preread on) is used to detect and separate TLS from none-TLS connection, it would be great to have the ability to set proxy_protocol from map values that depend on parsed incoming TLS or none-TLS connection.

This would allow to pass original client IP to a HTTP backend that listens with proxy_protocol enabled.

Effectively this would allow to terminate TLS and none TLS connections on a single port without losing original client IP in logs.
