It means "We make both the entire SQLite source code (many different .c and .h files) and the amalgamation (one .c file, one .h file) available for download. Use the amalgamation version in your project.". The many-file sourcecode files are for debugging, figuring out how SQLite works, and for the team developing SQLite. You might need them if you're making your own custom changes to SQLite to make it do something non-standard. But for mundane use, just use the amalgamation. The above is an unofficial informal translation.
