There are small but subtle changes between versions 1.0 and 1.1 of the BIGTREETECH Kraken 1.1 board. Of note, the Rsense value has changed for stepper drivers on S1-S4. From the BTT Product Wiki:

V1.0:Max 8A driving current for S1-S4(Rsense=22mR)
V1.1:Max 4.7A driving current for S1-S4(Rsense=50mR)

Accordingly, the values for sense_resistor: should change from 0.022 to 0.050. I hope updating this default saves others many hours of hair pulling and searching!

Change A/B sense_resistor value to 1.1 board spec.

I don't think this P.R. will work in its current form. Simply changing the setting to be right for a different board revision doesn't really solve the problem, just moves the problem around.

I think the correct approach is to set the field to something invalid (-1? not sure, haven't tested) to make klipper refuse to start, and then have a comment explaining what the valid options are.

The other possibility would be to have to separate config files, but that seems a little drastic for the small number of changes.
