Description

The present implementation of parallel personalized page rank algorithm takes only node ids as the starting nodes for algorithm. And then it assigns initial value of 1.0 to all those source nodes.

But the user might also be interested in specifying the initial values for each node. 

I have done the required very small modification to the existing code to achieve this. I thought it might help lot more people if I share it here, hence raising a PR for the same.
