I have unconfirmed transactions in my bitcoind wallet. Some of the are mine and some are incoming third party transactions.

I want to speed up their confirmation by creating CHPFP transaction - spending unconfirmed inputs in one transaction with substantial fee. This would make mining unconfirmed inputs profitable. This is possible in electrum wallet.

How should i do it in bitcoind ? I suppose i should use sendtoaddress, but this will not use third party unconfirmed inputs and even change returns reported by spendable are ignored and bitcoind respond with "insufficient balance"

is there any setting or config, which would enable this ?
