No current plans. The most viable and useful part of the RFC is the
part that allows a message to *opt out* of TLS, so that one can, for
example, send email to a postmaster of a domain whose TLS setup is
not working as expected. That part is not too difficult to implement.

Postfix supports DANE, but there's no MTA-STS support. And I've not
seen much by way of receiving MTAs advertising REQUIRETLS as a
capability, so opportunities for the *require* part of the spec are
extremely limited.
