Entware has it now. Not sure about Optware.
Remember to 'opkg update' and 'opkg upgrade' before installing it, or there might be errors related to dependencies.
Code:
# opkg list | grep vim
vim - 8.2-5 - Vim is an almost compatible version of the UNIX editor Vi. (Tiny build)

Some of the features that are in vim but not in vi are windows splitting and tabs, code highlighting, macros, undo and redo multiple times, command line history, pattern matching, and word completion. All these features help developers and writers boost their productivity.
