I'm porting some code over to Go, and currently looking at some password hashing. I'm wondering if there is a 'standard library' alternative to using bcrypt?

The data being stored is not critical or sensitive, just some email address mainly. >From my research it sounds like 'golang.org/pkg/crypto/sha512/' might be what I need, but I dont see any clear alternative for the following functions below: I'm still new to Go, so I'm wondering what would be the recommended solution using the standard library please?
