Neither, actually.  The vim packages only ship the english spellfiles,
as provided in the upstream source.  Any other language is downloaded,
if the user allows, as described in ':help spellfile.vim'.

We had done some work a few years ago to make language-specific
spellfiles packages, but at the time none of the maintainers had
machines that could actually build all the spellfiles.  The process
typically ran afoul of the OOM killer.  As such, we asked for the
removal of those packages (#471285).

I might actually have a system that can build those files now, so I
could potentially revisit that.
