I'm making a new font. What license should my font have so that my font can easily be included in ubuntu and other distributions?

Not support,

Look into SIL Open Font License.

I'm sure there will be other options as well.
To add:
If it were me doing it, I'd look into contacting the Debian font team,
https://wiki.debian.org/Fonts/PackagingPolicy
as if you get it into Debian, it'll get pulled into Ubuntu and then all subsequent distributions.
And then maybe other non-Debian based distributions might also look at including it.
