Set a security group as a member of unified group
I don't believe you can have add a security group as a member. If your goal is dynamic membership, that is a new released capability of Groups.
From http://fasttrack.microsoft.com/roadmap :
"Administrators can now create groups with rule-based memberships using the Azure Management Portal. Group membership is updated within a minute as users’ properties change. This allows easy management or larger groups, or the creation of groups that always reflect the organization’s structure."
The linked details:
I know your scenario isn't copying the SG's members but wanted to mention that OWA now supports adding all the members of a DL or a group to another group. It adds a snapshot of the members, not a dynamic nesting. I believe an SG would have to be mail-enabled for this to work.

Thanks for the reply! Azure AD dynamic membership is a great feature but it is not a perfect solution in our case. We use Microsoft Classroom and if a Teacher wants to add students manually to a Class (which uses O365 groups) he/she can´t do that cause dynamic membership does not allow secondary means of controlling group membership.
We are now looking at the OWA-option!
