Ports is the source of the packages, so to speak.  It's a set of makefiles,
metadata, patches and so on that allows packages to be built from FreeBSD.  You
can use it to build packages yourself, either locally, or using poudriere
(which is the same software that the official packages use).
In this case, if you had either poudriere or a ports tree, you would download
the patch, and then rebuild libpciaccess with my patch.  I don't think it's
needed though, I've had several reports of success with the patch, and I hope
to get it in the tree shortly.
There is some more info about the ports tree here:
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html . 
Hopefully it can serve as a start on how the ports tree works.
