Thanks a lot to everybody who make it possible! I find the GeoIP solution quite elegant.
I wrote a script this morning to let anonymous users opt-in for being redirected to HTTPS with the same forceHTTPS cookie [1]; such a script could be used to increase the proportion of HTTPS visitors (probably this script should be not used now before the server load is better known).

Great! thank you everyone!
I want to ask do you want to make a site notice everywhere? If you don't want to do that I'll make a local version of it in fa.wp because It's very important there

No, we put up a CentralNotice banner last week to raise awareness that this change was coming, but we're not planning to display it again. A local site notice sounds good if you think your wiki needs it :)
