It is instant. When a melee champion completes a swing, the target is immediately damaged. When a ranged champion completes an attack swing, a projectile is loosed and there is a duration between swing completion and the target being damaged. Thresh swings his whip, it doesn't matter how fast you run the whip will always impact you at the same time. This is why often you can flash away from a melee champion and still die to his auto-attack.

When Jarvan uses his lance, everything on the line he was targetting is instantly damaged. When Annie casts her cone of flame, everything in the aoe upon completion of cast swing is instantly damaged. When Kog'maw uses his ult, everything still in the radius is instantly damaged.

Its easy to see the clear line for Yasuo if you think in this manner.
